I thought we might escape this one since we hit every sleep regression known to man, but of course I wasn't so lucky

What was the 18 month regression like for your LO? How long did it last?

DD has been fighting going to bed at night- sometimes taking up to an hour to fall asleep and wants us to rock her. So we have been, but she fights it until 8/8:30pm and then has been waking up around 5:30am- not even crying, just waking up "talking" and ready to start the day. I know she's not getting enough sleep because she is a cranky pants during the day, but I'm not sure what to do. It's been going on 4 days now...
