  I say be thankful she sleeps through the night. My daughter was but a week ago decided that it's time to get up around 1-3 am. Me and my husband have to be up at 5 for work and don't get to go to bed until about 10 at night. We are extremely exhausted and have no idea why she won't sleep anymore

  I highly doubt she is going to nap more during the day if she's getting that much sleep at night. The majority of babes only need around 13 hrs in a 24 hr period at this age.

  There is a common sleep regression around 10 months. Perhaps this is all it is?

  Well she had a yeast infection and we think it was something to do with that. It's pretty much healed now and is back to sleeping around 8 hours a night. (Thank goodness)

  Thanks! I had no idea that 13 hours in a 24 hour period is all that is needed. This would probably explain it! Now I guess I need to decide whether I should wake her up earlier or keep the current schedule.

  Regressions are the worst! My LO has ups and downs in her night time sleep too. Her first top tooth was probably the biggest regression yet.
