She might be waking up with terrible gas pains from not being properly burped during and after feeding. Pay more attention to see if she is burping during her feeding times.Try gently rubbing her tummy in a circular motion. These might help her burp and pass gas. She may also have an upset stomach due to milk allergies. Hope this helps.

Its sounds like your baby has seperation anxiety... She knows that if she cries you will come and pick her up and cuddle her. Maybe try giving her, her dummy and tucking her back in again while telling her its bed time. Probably the worst thing to do would be to keep picking her up because thats what she wants, give the method i suggested a few goes and she will know then that you will not pick her up and she probably wont wake up at all. Otherwise maybe give her just 120mls of milk or something during the night. She may just need a top up if she has a big appetite? How that helps and good luck! Dont worry about what the other girl said about the bad things your little girl might see at night.. Babys do have the ability to see other beings, that part is true. But they are good ones. Angels and guides that are around them teaching and protecting them. They will stop seeing these guides around them when they become wary or scared, it is definately not bad spirits scaring her at night so dont worry

Some babies wake up and cry for a short time, perhaps you are picking her up to soon and should just wait a few minutes to see if she goes back to sleep on her own. If she's not crying, just playing, I would say let her play. Perhaps she's getting to many naps during the day, or too long of a nap during the day. I might also suggest a nice warm bath for her right before bed time to relax her. Good luck with that.

I'd say separation anxiety. My 9-month old is just about there too. By going to her 3-4 times a night you're conditioning her to call for you 3-4 times a night.

My trick for my baby was lullabies for naptime (I have to put them on repeat now on the CD player or she pops awake at the end of the CD) and a heartbeat machine I leave on all night for night time. I NEVER play the heartbeat during the day.

She seems to somehow know the difference between the day "nap" music sound and the "night" heartbeat sound and she's only woken up at night 8 times in over 9 months.

She sleeps from 9:00 to 9:00 (although I wake her at 11:30 for a 20 minute diaper change and to eat a bit because that's been the routine right from when she was born.)

I also have a 2nd soother that I always put in the same place in the corner of her crib. That way if she loses or tosses out the one I put her to sleep with she knows where another one is if she needs it. (More often than not the yellow one I put her down with is on the floor in the morning and she's sucking on the spare pink one.)

When she DOES wake outside the normal times she usually hears the heartbeat and goes back to sleep on her own. (There's that dub-dub-dub... and there's not much light in my room... hmmm... must not be morning. I'd better go back to sleep.)

If not then I just go in give her a little squeeze and a kiss on the head and lay her back down with her soother and her blankie without saying anything (or just whispering "It's not morning yet" - nothing loud or exciting) and she goes back to sleep.

Once or twice when I thought she was getting herself too riled up to go back to sleep alone I laid down on the floor in her room and pretended to sleep myself to show her that was all that was going on. (Hey, Mommy's sleeping... nothing exciting to see here...)

It's the consistent routine that's most important I think.

She gets up so often because she knows you will pick her up and carry her around. At 11 months old she should be sleeping well thru the night. You're going to need to let her cry it out at this point. Shes too old to require eating in the middle of the night (unless she has a medical condition you didnt mention). She just wakes up and is bored or lonely in her crib and cries becaues well mommy always runs in and picks me up.

Its not helping her and certainly not helping you. LET HER CRY! That wont hurt her!

Make sure shes getting plenty of play time before bed. Make sure she eats a well balanced last meal of the day. Put a crib toy (one that attaches to the side) on her crib so if she wakes up she might entertain herself at first.
If she wakes up and you suspect she may be hungry try feeding her, it won't hurt her.
If the pain in her stomach has gone on for a period of time and consulting the doctor hasn't worked. Request for her to see a pediatric GI Specialist. They are trained better when it comes to the GI track.
My oldest did not sleep through the night untill 14m, it had nothing to do with being spoiled. Our children have needs and we are the ones they look to in order to have them filled.
Good Luck

all of my boys would get up and cry until they were 1 year old. The doctor told me that if they werent hungry, then I should just let them fuss awhile and they would go back to sleep. I guess at that age, they already know how to manipulate you and they cry because they know that you will get up and pay attention to them. So, instead if they cry, leave them. Then if they cry longer, go to them and sush them quietly and leave again (dont pick them up because that will just make it worse!) Eventually, they will stop waking up. Another thing that I did was take the pacifier away from my son because it kept popping out of his mouth and hitting the bars of the crib and it made noise and woke him up. My youngest son wouldnt sleep through the night until we put him in a big boy bed. We tried it on his first bday and its been about a month and he hasnt woken up in the night at all since then.

It could be one of many things.Maybe she's not digesting the food right and thats why her tummy makes funny noises.Maybe she has colic.My one daughter went through that for 2 weeks and the only thing to calm her down would be to hold her.Ask your doctor to check for that.Maybe its the milk she's drinking or the creams she's eating.Is she trying something for the first time?Have you changed milks recently?Last but not least,maybe she feels a little insecurity and needs to be held.She's still a baby baby..hang in there,be patient,ask your doctor..it'll all be okay!

She's not a baby! She's almost a toddler, she should be sleeping through the night. If she is not in pain during the day or fussy like this, I would put my money on the fact that she just wants momma to come hold her (if she were in pain, she would cry even if you were holding her). Most babies that are trained to sleep and don't get "comforted" at night sleep straight through the night as early as 5 and 6 months.

Good luck undoing this!

It's probably just her wanting comfort and company. If it's not an illness, you can train her to wean her off the habit by attending to her at increasing intervals. For instance, when she starts to cry, let her cry for 3 minutes, then go to her. The next time she wakes crying, let her go for 4 minutes before comforting her. Then 5, etc. You'll find that she's soon able to settle herself back to sleep.
