| There are a myriad of reasons why babies wake up, even if they were good sleepers before. He might be teething, or going through a growth spurt, too hot, too cold etc. You might want to consider whether anything has changed in his day time routine as this can sometimes have a knock on effect at night. Has he started going to a baby group or mixing with a new group of children; this might account for the extra sickness or it could be that it's that time of the year.
Sometimes I think that the only rules with children, is that there are no rules. Just when you think you've got the hang of their routine and habits, they change and throw you into confusion. Not much help, I know, but my three have kept me on my toes and are always changing what I think is normal.
I know it can make you very tired, especially if you're working as well. I hope he gets back to sleeping better soon. Good luck. |
