  • Unfortunately just normal! None of my 3 children slept through the night until they were two.
    Check the usual things like not too hot or too cold, not hungry, you could try letting them self settle for a bit.


  • warm drink before putting down to settle. Make sure not too hot or cold. If any chance of teething then try some Panadol


  • My baby is also having the same issue :(


  • A paediatrician might be able to give you some good tips. My son has just turned 2 and has only just started sleeping through the night on and off


  • How are they sleeping now?


  • i hope all is going well


  • Hope you have managed to find a way to help them sleep better.


  • Won’t sleep at all or won’t sleep through. A lady at the chemist told me her child would micro sleep and it would seem like they never slept at all!


  • I hope for your sake soon they will sleep during the night


  • Sounds like your baby wants to be an owl


  • Any advice below helped since your post?

  • Let them lie in the cot, I do that with my 20 month old lays there silently and falls asleep when she gets bored
