CIO doesn't work anymore, we tried for an hour and a half and she just kept standing in her crib crying on and off. So I lost confidence in it. Last night she woke up once every two hours and that was an improvement! She has had sleep regressions too but this is the longest one so far. :(::: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/25-month-old-toddler-sleeping-like-a-newborn#post-2060593 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 11:34:53 +0000 birdofafeather 2060593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've read it's extremely common for kids to go through a separation anxiety again at 2 years old. We did/are! She likes the reassurance we're there so we go in an rub her back and then sit in her room until she's asleep again. She was only doing this once a night though! We had to slowly transition out because sleep training a toddler is way worse than an infant! They are stubborn fools! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/25-month-old-toddler-sleeping-like-a-newborn#post-2060425 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 10:09:43 +0000 Anagram 2060425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are you opposed to sleep training somehow? It seems like she needs to relearn how to self soothe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/25-month-old-toddler-sleeping-like-a-newborn#post-2060176 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 03:36:44 +0000 gracecat 2060176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Please help me!! My dd is 25 months old and slept like a champ until we went overseas for Christmas. Since then she has been waking up anywhere from 2-7 times per night, sometimes every hour!! We have figured out that her ideal sleep preference is for us to have our hand on her back all night while she sleeps in her crib. She seems to require constant reassurance that we are there. Sometimes we can just tell her to lie back down but that doesn't always work and she will stand up and cry for us in her crib until we lie her back down and pat her back. She is still in her crib, and used to sleep thru the night since we sleep trained at 3 months old. She doesn't use any paci or bottle. I was so desperate I take her into my bed sometimes but she surprisingly doesn't like it and frequently asks to go back to her crib, so I know that's not why she is waking up so much. It would actually be better if we could just bring her to our bed cuz we could all sleep but she clearly does not love it. :(. Help a mommy out!! </p>
