Sleep Disruption Troubleshooting

Common sleep challenges at this age

Teething Pain

When: Can begin around 4–6 months and continue through 24 months as teeth erupt.

Signs: Increased drooling, gum rubbing, irritability, refusal to feed, disrupted night sleep.

What helps: Offer a clean, chilled teething ring. Gently massage gums with a clean finger. Maintain consistent bedtime routines. If pain is severe, consult your pediatrician about appropriate pain relief.

Separation Anxiety

Peak windows: Around 8–10 months and again at ~18 months.

Signs: Crying when you leave the room, bedtime resistance, waking and needing your presence to resettle.

What helps: A consistent, calming bedtime routine signals safety. Object permanence development is healthy. Brief check-ins with soothing words can help. Avoid prolonging nighttime interactions. Source: AAP.
