I don't know WTF happened except to guess it is separation anxiety.  Since pretty much day 1, Jackson has been an awesome sleeper.  Grant it, I thank the swaddle for most of it but about 3 weeks ago, this kid has been vetoing sleep.  It is absurd!  I could literally decide "you need to go to bed now" and I could put him down pretty much "wide awake" and he'd just go to sleep.

So now it's 10-15 minutes of back rubbing at bedtime and he has to be completely asleep before I can leave the room.  He wakes up in the middle of the night and does this wimper/whine/fuss thing he's never done before.  I used to walk in, put his binky back in and walk out.  Done....he'd go back to sleep.  Now it's either rub his back for a while or give in and take him to my bed.

H and I both work 55+ hours a week and need sleep.  Pleeeease tell me this is temporary!  And also any words of wisdom.  This was about the time when my daughter really started sleeping well, again, out of no where.

    Has lo learned anything new recently, crawling, cruising etc? Or is he teething? When dd learned to crawl she was teething at the same time, I could have written this exact post. It lasted about 3 weeks and then she went back to sleeping great, thank goodness!!! Hope your lo gets back to being a good sleeper soon!

    I am in the same boat and my little guy is named Jackson as well!! :)   Anyway he has been sleeping 11-12 hours straight through night since he was 5.5 months old, he has NEVER woken up in the middle night I mean maybe once or twice bc of a nightmare and all I would do was pick him up and hug him for a second and he'd go right back to sleep.  Then all of a sudden at 11 months he stopped sleeping, its been a month now and he is waking up every 2-3 hours every night!!  I have no idea what the hell happened to my good sleeper or what is going on with him.  He is getting a couple teeth and on the verge of walking, but he has never done this with any other milestone or teething.  How does a child who has always slept through the night suddenly forget how to sleep?!  I' m at my wits end!!!!!
