Hi guys,

I hope some of you can give me a bit of advice if that's ok :)

My boy is now 19 months old and the past couple of nights he has been waking up for 2 hours normally about 2-4am :eek:

He doesn't seam hungry although he will drink milk if I give it to him, not too hot or cold nappy is also ok.

He wakes up really crying and will fall straight back to sleep when I Pick him up and cuddle him but as soon as I put him back in his bed, he sits up wanting to be cuddled and saying mummeeeee.

Sooooooo do you think he is having bad dreams and he finding comfort when cuddling with me?

Any advice on how to deal with this or is it a case of just riding it out.

Just as a side note I really can't leave him just to cry it out as he doesn't fall back to sleep he gets himself in to a state and has on occasion made himself sick.

Thank you

Sprinkly

Just to add he has never slept in our bed, I always sit in his room on a big springy chair.

    have you tried sleeping in a t-shirt then putting the t-shirt in with him when he wakes up rather that give him a cuddle?
