Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Anyone's LO always waking up crying?

DD almost always wakes up crying. There isn't anything wrong with her. As soon as I come in and get her she's all smiles. I wish she could just wake up and call out for us or something!

  • Charlie does this almost every time... it's just how he wakes up. I agree, I wish he would just say Mama instead, but what can you do? :)

  • Yes, for naps and for morning wake ups.  Its a heck of a way for me to wake up. lol

    I don't know why she does this, we put in a night light thinking maybe the dark was scaring her, nope! lol Hopefully as my LO begins to talk, this will stop.

  • Rarely does he wake up and not cry immediately.  He's upset the second his eyes open but only because he wants OUT.  As soon as we go in there he's fine.

  • My son stopped waking up crying when we put him in the toddler bed. Now he calls for us and also often gets up and comes out himself, super cute.

  • DS1 went through a phase like this from about 15-17 months. The worst part was that it happened around 5:00-5:30am. You're right, getting jarred awake like that is a terrible way to get up. Sometimes I could get him back asleep on me in the living room. Sometimes not. I couldn't let him CIO either since he'd wake DS2 and that's the last thing I needed.

    The problem for us was that he wasn't getting nearly enough sleep at his old daycare. It was a horrible non-sleep cycle. Once we moved to a new place, he's been waking up at 7:00 happily talking and laughing with DS2. It's magical.

    If your LO is up and crying at a reasonable hour, napping probably isn't the cause. Hopefully they just grow out of it.  Good luck!
