My 9-month-old still wakes up several times at night. Is this normal, and how can I help her sleep better? She’s teething and learning to crawl, which seems to be disrupting her sleep. We’ve tried soothing her back to sleep, but she often ends up in our bed, which I don’t want to become a habit. Any tips?
Night wakings are common at this age due to growth spurts and teething. I talk about developmental milestones and leaps in here.Track them to see what to expect.
Consistent bedtime routines and sleep schedule can help her to sleep better and not be overtired. Consider sleep training in between teething, as it can help reduce wakings.
Also, ensure she’s comfortable (not too cold, hot, wet) and consider teething relief options if that’s causing her discomfort.
