Ok not too sure what to do about ds and whether his sleep patterns are normal or not.
He is coming up for two and has a fairly bad sleep history but finally started to sleep through the night at about 14 months. The problem is that it goes in fits and bursts..he will have a couple of weeks where he is great and sleeps through no problem and then he will go through another couple where he wakes every couple of hours and then goes back to sleeping through. Do other toddlers do this, what do you do?
At the moment because he is generally a reasonable sleeper now days I assume something is amiss and waking him up so I respond, I go in, pat his back, cover him up, offer a drink if really upset and then go back to bed. He usually settles after this, if not I go in every 5 minutes until he does settle, on the very rare occasion I get him up and rock with him in the rocker ( this is only if I desperately need us both to sleep) Any ideas...he goes back to sleeping through after two or three weeks and then sleeps beautifully for two or three weeks.
