2 year old not sleeping-any solutions would be appreciated

Hi,

My DD (just turned 2 years) has always been a good sleeper, since she was 4 weeks old. In the last few weeks, she is resiting going to afternoon nap and sleeping at night. I have to rock her or lay with her for ages before she finally falls asleep (last time i did this was when she was a little baby). Also, she has been waking up during the night and needs to be cuddled to get back (eventually). I don't know if she had a bad nightmare or getting who molar teeth (doesnt look like it though) or having separation anxiety. Any ideas on how to get her back to her routine. :wall:

We jumped started our routine back by taking DD to a playcentre and ran and ran and ran (lol me too), till it was time for our daytime sleep which was 11 but now pushed back to 1. We had a sleep nanny who told us that if DD wasnt getting a good day nap her night sleep would also suffer. We have had a great month so far with her self settling again and at least 2 hrs throu the day
