Hi @Monique – Thanks for writing to us, and I’s sorry that your baby has stopped sleeping through the night and is now waking at 9:30-10:30pm! Whether it is true hunger, teething or tummy, or a habit, when you do go to her at this time and/or feed her, it is a good idea to place her back into her sleep space before she is all the way asleep, so she can have the chance to fall asleep on her own. This will help it from becoming a long term habit! Hopefully this is short lived and she will be sleeping well again soon! Please contact us if you need additional assistance! We’ve got a great team of sleep consultants with heaps of experience, waiting to help!

We started introducing solids about 2 weeks ago, and she got her second bottom tooth a week or so ago. So there’s lots going on.

Is this a phase? Or am I creating a bad habit?

HI @Anaira, thank you for writing to us. I’m so sorry you are experiencing so many night wakings with your 8 month old. We would love to help. Here is a link to download a free guide which will give you some tips on how to help her sleep through the night (at 8 months we’d say you may only need 1 waking a night for feeding, and some babies can sleep through by this point, just to give you a general reference of what the end goal can be, but don’t worry that you’re not there yet, it’s possible!): https://www.babysleepsite.com/sleep-through-night-free-ebook/
The guide will give you tips on how to help her sleep on her own, rather than needing you to come hold her. If you find the guide gives you a good place to start and you need more help with the next steps, we would love to help you with that as well. We offer one-on-one personalized consulting with our highly trained sleep consultants and would love to work with you should you need the help. Here is a link to read more about our personalized services: https://www.babysleepsite.com/baby-toddler-sleep-consulting-services/

Please tell me you can help! ?
I have a 8 month old daughter who was a perfect sleeper since she was born. From the moment she learned how to flip onto her stomach at 4.5months old, her sleep’s gone out of the window!
She is almost 8 months old now and wakes up 7-8 times at night and need to be held(no rocking or feeding necessary.. just holding her works) to go back to sleep. And this has been the case for the last 2 months now.
I was hoping it was just a phase but looks like this is becoming a norm now. Any suggestions or recommendations would really help…!
Ps: she is not yet teething

I don’t know what is causing my 3 ur old daughter to break night, she has been doing so for months, she has black circles under her eyes, right now it is 3:17pm. and she hasn’t slept since yesterday night nor have I because of her sleeping pattern which consist of staying up all night and sleeping all day. I have tried scheduling designated naptime, trying to keep her up and active all day but nothing is working. I am afraid that maybe it’s related to hyperactivity? Or a much more serious issue, this is effecting her eating schedule because she sleeps all day and also effecting me and my wife’s sleeping schedule as well. I would appreciate any advice you can give me to correct this Thank you. I am afraid this is or will hurt her growth and development and or health

@Kelly Sinclair – Thank you for writing to us! I am so sorry to hear you’ve been struggling with your 14 month old’s bedtime. This can be a tricky age as your daughter is going to continue to grow into independence and realize what’s going on more often and may push back a little more (my son is 14 months as well – so I totally get this). If you haven’t yet, I’d recommend downloading our free guide for toddler sleep tips! You can sign up to receive it here: https://www.babysleepsite.com/toddler-sleep-tips If you find you need more help and continuing the sleep training isn’t producing any results, let us know!
