My perfect sleeper suddenly not anymore?!..

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months
DD was a perfect, ideal sleeper. Since two months old she's slept through the night, effortless crib transition, so routined with naps bedtime. DD just turned 10 months. A few weeks ago she was going through a growth spurt I believe, waking up twice a night, got a bottle and went back to sleep.

Since then it's gotten worse now I sometimes have a hard time getting her to go to sleep at night she's often up again before we even go to bed, and theough the night. I've resorted to bringing her in our bed just to her back to sleep which I'm dissapounted in myself for doing and feel the issue lies there.. She's not in discomfort from teething or anything, she will simply cry until she is gets to lay with mom dad. I must break immediately but need some advice on how to do so :/

    My son did the same thing, and I HATED to do it, but we had to let him cry it out one night (His doctor and my husband, who is a doctor, convinced me that I had to be strong!). No problems since then.

    Thank you. Last night I let her cry for a little while and she eventually went down and I thought she was asleep sure enough a minute later she was up again... I caved I just wasn't sure if that's what I should be doing I will have to suck it up and be strong!!

    We are going through the same thing (although DS has always been a crappy napper and is to this day) his night sleep has been perfect since 2 months or so. All of a sudden he wakes up at any hour of the night screaming, for no apparent reason. The other night he was up 5x and I finally just couldn't muster since i've been sick... let him cry after I patted him for a minute... it took a while but he did finally go back to sleep. He did it again the night after that and again this morning. I have no idea why! I don't know if its a developmental phase or what but jeez... crazy!

    E still wakes 1-2x night to nurse, but we have resolved his other sleep issues with Ferber.  If you're on the fence on doing it, I recommend his book, Solve Your Child's Sleep Problems.  It worked wonders for us.  We did it a few months ago (E is 11 months) and we were at a breaking point with having to rock him back to sleep and tip toe out of his room with every wake-up.  Ferber worked for us, and we saw remarkable results after the first night, and he really got it by night 3.  It works, and it works fast.  We started off trying sleep lady shuffle, but that was worse for all of us.
