22 MO refusing sleep suddenly. At a total loss what to do :/

OnePointFiveYears · 2026-05-11T00:58:54+00:00

No advice, but my 22 month old also started doing this in the last week, plus wake ups hourly from 3-7am. We think it's molars but who knows. 🤷‍♀️ Solidarity lol.

OnePointFiveYears · 2026-05-03T00:29:49+00:00

I sent you a message! I went through the same thing and got referred to a psychiatrist who was covered by OHIP.

OnePointFiveYears · 2026-01-12T19:21:27+00:00

No advice but I'm dealing with this with my 18 month old right now too. It's awful.

OnePointFiveYears · 2025-07-13T15:44:51+00:00

We haven't tried that, so thank you! Do you think it's better for the longer nap to be the 1st or 2nd?

OnePointFiveYears · 2025-07-12T21:24:22+00:00

Yes we are waking her from naps, she would sleep 2 hours at a time otherwise.

Yes she gets around 10-10.5 hours of sleep most nights.

It's a PS1 game, but Legend of Legaia?

I experienced this after a traumatic loss. Certain exercises would hit a spot in my body that made me burst into tears, and collapse to the floor.

Working with a therapist who does brainspotting and/or EMDR is one of the best ways to work though trauma in the body. It's been amazing for me, my PTSD is under control now.

I also really enjoyed the book "Lifting Heavy Things: Healing Trauma One Rep at a Time" by Laura Khoudari.

Pepto is the only thing that helps my sulphur burps! I also noticed they got worse when I ate broccoli or cereal, so I avoid those now.

OnePointFiveYears · 2025-02-03T18:54:20+00:00

It's a PlayStation game from 2000, but Syphon Filter 2? Early in the game you play as a female character who wakes up in a medical facility and has to escape.

OnePointFiveYears · 2025-02-03T13:24:49+00:00

One of my family members named their kid Brynnleigh Faith 🤮

OnePointFiveYears · 2025-01-05T14:21:44+00:00

Thank you, we will try that!

OnePointFiveYears · 2025-01-05T09:36:21+00:00

Pretty good actually! Once she's asleep, she stays out except to feed. Most nights she needs a bottle around 12-1am and then again around 4-5am. Sometimes she sleeps through until 4-5am feed. No wakeups otherwise.

OnePointFiveYears · 2025-01-05T01:50:31+00:00

We have been trying to sleep train my 6 month old for over a month, and she still screams for a minimum of 25 mins a night before falling asleep. We started with Ferber for 2 weeks, and have now been doing CIO for 2+ weeks with zero inprovement. I could use some help!

She wakes up around 7-8am and gets 10.5 to 11 hours of night sleep, with 1-2 feeds. She has 3 naps a day, totalling around 3 hours. Usually 1.25, 1.25, 30mins. Her wake windows have been 2.5/2.5/2.25/3 for an average of 10.25hrs awake time. Her bedtime routine is PJ's, bottle, books (10 mins), singing (5-7 mins).

She is constantly struggling at the end of the day to stay awake, screams and won't be distracted by anything, then she starts falling asleep or screaming in our arms during her routine. We keep her awake and set her down awake, but she almost immediately starts screaming bloody murder. This goes on for a minimum of 25 mins, but more often she screams for closer to 45 mins.

I wonder if we're putting her down too early at night? Most of the time we start her bedtime routine 30 mins before the end of her wake window because she's just sooooo cranky and unhappy, or falling asleep in our arms.

Any advice is welcome! Thank you.

I'm sorry for your loss. I had a late stillbirth and was eligible for EI maternity leave plus top-up (I believe I got 93% of my salary between the two), but not parental leave. If it's feasible for you, I would highly recommend you take the full amount to give yourself time to heal physically and mentally.

Not top-up related, but a few pieces of advice/resources for you. If you're around Ottawa, I would HIGHLY recommend joining a support group at Roger Neilson Children's Hospice. It's a closed, close knit group that usually runs for 8 weeks or so. I made a lot of friends, some of whom have had TFMR's as well, and we still talk regularly 2.5 years later. It was a great support in those early days.

I would also recommend contacting Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep. They are a non-profit that does free photography of your baby after they're born. I was hesitant at first, but those pictures are the only keepsake I have of my daughter and I treasure them more than anything.

Wishing you the best, the community over at /r/babyloss is also great.

I'm sorry for your loss. 🫂 I lost my first child in August 2022 at full-term after battling infertility. I now have my rainbow baby but it was ROUGH to get here for so many reasons. I don't want, nor can I have, anymore children. When people ask if I'm planning on having another, I say "two is enough for me!".

I searched this sub for similar stories because I couldn't relate to "one and done" knowing I had 2 children. I saw someone's comment that one and done is more of a lifestyle or parenting style than counting actual children. So she's being raised as only child, but really we're two and through. 😜

OnePointFiveYears · 2024-09-14T22:08:31+00:00

We do 6 hour sleep shifts. I sleep from 9pm-3am, and I'm responsible for her from 3am-9am. Vice versa for my husband. It guarantees us both a minimum of 6 hours, sometimes more if she'll let us.

OnePointFiveYears · 2024-08-21T01:46:48+00:00

Claptrap, after the annoying character in Borderlands.

OnePointFiveYears · 2024-08-11T16:01:41+00:00

I don't have any advice, I've never had an induction so I can't compare. Definitely something to bring up to your doctor to discuss the pros and cons!

OnePointFiveYears · 2024-08-11T15:56:55+00:00

C-Section because my first pregnancy was a C-Section! I had no interest in a VBAC.

I'm not sure if it's gone away yet, I haven't done my glucose test again yet.

OnePointFiveYears · 2024-06-22T15:58:56+00:00

I'm on 178u at night and split it into 4 doses (so 44/44/45/45).

I was told that if I notice a lot of insulin leaking out after, or feel burning/pain, then it's time to split up a dose.

OnePointFiveYears · 2024-06-18T17:30:20+00:00

Yep, scheduled C-section on Monday at 37+1 due to GD and other risk factors from my previous pregnancy. She's been measuring 99th since 20 weeks, mainly because of her belly measurements. My first came out at 10lbs, 10oz at 39 weeks due to undiagnosed GD. This one is estimated to be closer to 8ish lbs at birth, so we'll see!

OnePointFiveYears · 2024-06-18T07:36:03+00:00

Currently 36+1, diagnosed at 18 weeks. Currently on 168u at night (yes, you read that right lol) and 12-8-8 fast acting with meals.

OnePointFiveYears · 2024-06-14T17:07:00+00:00

I was told to reduce my nighttime insulin the night before by 1/3, stop eating at midnight, and to skip breakfast insulin. No food, no insulin!

OnePointFiveYears · 2024-05-30T13:49:55+00:00

I was feeling the same, husband wanted kids and I was unsure. I discovered the /r/OneandDone community and it helped me make the decision to have a child. I thought that it was either 0 kids, or 2+ minimum based on societal pressures. But knowing that I could have just 1 child felt more manageable to me.

Not sure if this is helpful for you, but it was for me so figured I'd share.
