Toddler unsettled overnight and Pregnancy....

[*Beema*]

DD has been very unsettled for the last week and a half, waking up all hours of the night wanting lots of cuddles, the last ocuple of nights we haven't been able to use a spare bed as we have had visitors, but we have been sleeping in the spare room together a lot so we would both get some sleep. And if she came in with DH and I she would hit him until he got out of the bed then promptly fall asleep

I am wondering it could be a few things... but these all started after the unsettled period was a few days in, but they might be adding to the length of it her Chronic Cough has returned but that had only been the last two days, she had a flu shot a week ago, so was a bit upset after than.

Is she perhaps sensing my pregnancy, we haven't told her about it as her vocabulary has gone through the roof and she would start telling people

I was wondering if it was a wonder week - do they even happen at this age (corrected she is a bit over 19 months, 21 actual)...

Or just one of those phases... I was wondering if we should look at converting her cot to the toddler bed and if it be best that we do it now rather than when I am further along, we won't be using the cot for bub at the start, but when bub does go to the cot she will go into a new room.

So many questions and just not sure what else it could be!

Vic, there's so much going on for you atm she is probably just picking up on the fact that something's different. Hope she settles down for you and you all get some lovely rest

Emily was doing this when I was in my early pregnancy, she would have been 19 or 20 months. She was just soooooo clingy.
As for the cot, maybe wait until she's feeling 100% before moving her into a bed.

Thanks girls

How long did Emily do it Jodi? Just wondering if I can get an idea how long this phase may last

Three wakeups last night after we went to bed, she is sleeping really solidly from 7:30/8pm- 11/12, but after that she is all over the place, by 5am I gave up and we went into the spare bedroom where she kicked an squirmed until she went back to sleep.

Hopefully she settles again soon, I keep asking her what is wrong, I just wish I could help her

She still has her days where she's super clingy. But the really bad part lasted about 2 months (maybe).

Hopefully she settles again soon, I keep asking her what is wrong, I just wish I could help her Today 08:35 AM

It's so hard at this age isn't it. They can't communicate well enough to tell us exactly what the problem is.
Hang in there hun

I have no idea what it could be - mine weren't really doing that until I was showing heaps and they could see something was in there!
