DD sleep issues-please help!

My DD is 10.5 months old. She has never been the best sleeper. Up until recently, she would usually wake up 1-2 times to bf since she hasn't been as interested in sitting still for a bottle now that she is very mobile. It wasn't a huge deal to me because she would fall asleep right after bf, and I wanted to make sure she got enough milk. However, the past few weeks, she has been getting up every half hour starting at 11 and won't really settle down until about 3-not every night but most nights. The only thing that really settles her down is bf, and even that doesn't always work. I know that's created a bad habit but since I work and am exhausted I will to anything to just get her to sleep. I am not sure if it's teething. She won't take ice which has worked in the past when her teeth were hurting. It seems like she just can't settle down, she wiggles all around wimpers a little. I thought it was maybe an ear infection but she is fine napping during the day and very happy besides this time at night. Should I wait it out? Call ped? She is close to walking, maybe that has something to do with it? Any advice would really be appreciated! Thanks.Chat Icon

Did you try giving her motrin before bed in case it is teething? DD1 went through a phase like that twice. Once it was teething, the other time she was very constipated and I didn't even realize it. Chat Icon

My DS was like that a few weeks ago. He got 2 teeth this week. I don't know if it was the teeth or soemthing else because since 6 months he has learned to crawl, pull up, cruise and now walking and add in the teeth and he has a lot goign on. All I can say is it will pass.
