DS has been going to sleep on his own and STTN for over a year now. All of the sudden about a week and a half ago, he started getting really fussy during the bedtime routine. He still managed to calm down by the time the routine was over and I put him in his crib. Three or four nights ago he started just screaming at the top of his lungs around the time we pick a book, and I can't get him to settle down most of the time. When we finally put him in his crib, he is fine if we sit there next to him, but starts screaming if we leave the room. I don't know what triggered this or what to do about it. Nothing has changed in his life. When the time changed, we moved his bedtime from 8:00 to 8:30 but he was fine with that. After a few nights of the fussiness we moved it back up some because I thought maybe he was staying up too late. What we have done the past couple nights is sit with him until he falls asleep, but I don't want this to be a precedence. Any thoughts on what could be causing this or what to do about it? We did a modified version of the Sleep Easy Solution when we sleep trained at seven months (two long terrible weeks) so I am debating doing that again, but I just don't know why the sudden change.
