Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

sleep regression or separation anxiety?

We started DD in a toddler program at the beginning of the month.  It's 3 days a week for 3 hours a day.  Since the first week she's been waking at night crying and screaming whereas she had been STTN since 3 months old.  Once it seemed to be a nightmare, but the other times I'm pretty sure it isn't.  I change her and comfort her but she still cries a bit, sometimes for an hour.  I'm also 8w pregnant and very tired so it's bugging me.  Could this be separation anxiety from being away from mom for the first time, or coincidence?  She's 18m now.

Re: sleep regression or separation anxiety?

  • They say separation anxiety peaks at 18m.  My DD was STTN and had so separation anxiety until her molars came in and then the night wakenings and separation anxiety set in.  Could have been coincidence.
