Sophia has always been a great sleeper. She goes through small phases of not wanting to fall asleep but we usually just give a kiss and walk out. She'll sometimes fall right to sleep, complain a little, or cry for 10 mins the most. After that, she's out for the night.
Over the past week, she has been waking up at night crying. We have no idea why. We check her temp, diaper, teeth, make sure she's not gassy, etc. before resorting to rocking to get her back to sleep. She has been between 2-4am and again at 6am. And tonight she went down at 8 and woke up 10 mins ago.
My question is what should we do? Do we go in and check on her immediately? Do we wait until she's been crying for a certain amount of time? Do we just do straight CIO?
I went in there and didn't pick her up. I just said Sophia lay down, night-night and she did lay back down but she wouldn't let me leave or shut the door. I walked out but left the door open. Do you think maybe a night light would help? She has never needed one in the past.
This is new to us since she hasn't woken up multiple times overnight since about 6 months.
