My 18 months lo used to sleep thru the night. We will pat him and he will fall asleep. I don't know what happened recently, but he would just suddenly be completely awake asking to get out of bed at 2am. He cries his heart out standing in his bed. Once out, we cuddles, lies there, but wouldn't want to fall back to sleep. As soon as he does, putting him back to bed, the crying starts all over again. Any tips? I do not want him to be spoilt falling asleep next to me and stay with me all night. Thanks for sharing your advice!

This happen to my lo when he have not enough sleep during the day or played too much. Too tired and gets v cranky. Does he sleep alot in day time? as 18mo, I think one nap around 3hr nap is enough. Is the room temperature same as per normal? Recently the weather is kinda warm which will also effect their sleep. Normally I will feed my lo w water/milk and he will go back to sleep.
