10 months and won’t sleep!

Z

So it’s fairly recently but as of late my daughter is just an absolute fight to go to bed. She will scream and play and laugh and cry until 10 ish and then go to sleep.

Her normal bedtime is 8. We start our bedtime routine at 715 when I get home from work. Dinner, bottle, change with soft music then she gets rocked till sleepy and lays down. She’ll lay there for a while and might even sleep for a few but then gets up and I can’t get her to go back to sleep.

My husband thinks it’s her bedtime

I’m wondering if it’s teething related?

Please help :(

I found giving baby a healthy snack at 3.30pm helped us she is always so busy and wanting to play at dinner time that she was trying to stay up later and feed. This helped her start to go back to sleeping right after the bath again she now goes down at 7pm instead of 9pm

I bedshare as I work full time and noticed a huge difference in our quality of sleep when baby is right beside me. As opposed to in her crib which is right beside me and the bed, apparently that extra 1m is just too far for our baby girl. I’ve noticed that during the week she is very clingy at night and during the weekend she is less clingy and sometimes will reach out for her crib. Then I put her down in her crib and there she will sleep all night, but if I try that during the working week she will fight all night long. I think there is a lot to be said about them missing you over the day and making up for it with night time contact

I had to push my sons bed time back to 9:30-10. He was waking every night between 12:30-2am. Now he sleeps through the night.

He wakes up at 7am and will nap at 10:30 for 30-hour and one more nap about 1. He doesn’t sleep past 3:30 ever, we wake him up.

Yeah I pick my daughter back up and rock her and I just let her cry and scream in my arms for however long it takes until she calms down and I can continue to rock her sometimes I gently rub my finger on her face to calm her. She has a white noise machine in her room that helps

Going through this at the moment, I think it’s the 10 month regression as the last 2 nights have been ok so I’m hoping it’s back to normal. We didn’t change anything.

I don’t have much advice but I’m in the same boat, I’m guessing teeth? Or something about this age.. my son is usually a walk in the park and the last few weeks he’s been a terror. It’s not every day, but there are some nights where he goes to bed around 9pm and then he’s up from like 2am-4am and then up again at 630.. his naps have also gone from 2 hours to about 45 mins. Idk how he’s even awake most of the time, he HAS to be exhausted. Just like me lol. He’s also been super clingy always wanting to be held, which isn’t like him at all. He usually loves to be on his own to play. I feel for you! 😩

She has also been clingy! My baby sitter said her naps have been short too but on the days I’m home I don’t notice a difference. That’s so weird.
