Is anyone else going through this or recently been through this?
My nearly 18 month old has never met a sleep regression phase she didn't like. Months 4-7 of her life were a blur due to a never ending sleep regression which meant she was up 1-3 hours all through the night.
Anyway she has been better of late, sleeping through till 5, quick BF and then back till 6:30ish or 7ish with maybe another quick BF in there. I had been bringing her in with me at 5.
For the last week she's been waking at 3 and has been near impossible to settle for more than 45 minutes between 3 and 7. It is killing me. I think she also might be going through a growth spurt as she has been eating for England this morning.
I know there is a developmental leap around this age that interferes with sleep and I suspect she's probably going through that. Her vocabulary has exploded in the last month and she's saying, probably, around 100 words now and she understands many more.
So, does this phase pass quickly or will it be a couple of months of hell?
The worst part is that my work is hellishly busy right now and the last thing I need is falling asleep in meetings.
