Sleep and tantrums help!

Is anyone else really struggling with their 19 month old and sleep at the minute? She completely self settles and doesn’t need any help getting to sleep. However, currently she is like having a newborn again. She wakes up in the middle of the night with a scream she has never done before until the last week, it’s the loudest and highest pitch scream ever. It’s like she wakes up terrified of her cot and refuses to get back to sleep, last night it was 12am, 1:15am and 2:15am and didn’t go back to sleep until 3:30am, I am exhausted and I don’t know what to do. Her naps have always been fine until today, I’m currently still trying to stop her from screaming and to go to sleep and she normally is fast asleep at 12:30 for her nap, anyone else going through this or had it and have any advice?🙃

My little boy is doing the exact same but we are moving away from co sleeping. It’s the scream that gets me. Apparently at this age they start having nightmares.

Yes we similar situation too

yes me too! and she’s absolutely refusing her nap in the day to the point she’ll go without it so long she falls asleep at like 6:30pm (which is early for us) and constantly gets up through the night

This was us last week. 4 nights out of 7 woke up in a full blown tantrum. One night was a solid 3 hours of screaming! 😫Must be some sort of sleep regression I’m thinking! X
