Toddler waking up at night

Nikki

Anyone else’s toddler waking up multiple times at night crying? I thought it was the 2 year sleep regression but he has been waking up anywhere from 1 to 3 times between midnight and 4am at least 4 days out of the week. It’s been going on for almost 2 months. I’ve made the following changes: added a sound machine; put him in a light sleep sack in case he was getting cold (he kicks any blankets off); got more strict with night time routine (bath, 3 books); started giving him a sippy cup overnight bc he started walking up thirsty. Before age 2 he rarely woke up at night and has always been a good sleeper. I’m not sure what else to try or if this is just something he needs to grow out of. We don’t rush in right away when he starts crying and do not pick him up out of the crib. We just lay him back down, rub his back a little and leave. Only other thing I can think of to try is a night light.
