Where teething of the central incisors and canines is very evident by hands in the mouth and lots of drooling, these 2nd molars can be pretty quiet until bedtime and/or the middle of the night. This could be due to the appearance of the 2nd molars. YourВ child is crying and fussing where he previously relaxed himself into sleep independently. Why are the signs of the 2 year old sleep regression?

A child who has no self soothing skills needs to be taught how to relax into sleep independently whereas a child in a sleep regression is needs reassurance and boundaries. ThereвЂ™s a big difference in how we would solve those two different scenarios. Suddenly they are fighting bedtime and naps, waking at night and/or waking early in the morning. The two year old sleep regressions occur in children who have previously been falling asleep by themselves in their room and sleeping 11-12 hours at night. The issue being that the child doesnвЂ™t know how to relax herself into sleep independently, or prefers not to,В and needs the comfort of a bottle or another person to help her. If your toddler needs to have a parent lie down with her to fall asleep at night, or get a bottle to go back to sleep in the middle of the night, and this has always been the case, this is not a sleep regression, but an existing sleep association issue.

Note that these are different from challenges that have always existed with falling asleep. вЂњSleep regressions can manifest in challenges falling asleep at bedtime, night waking or early wake upsвЂќ. This regression can occur anywhere from the 2 year birth day, and into the 2.5 year old mark. at what stage does the risk of sleep regression not exist? Ah yes! The teenage years when it can be hard to get them out of bed!ДЄll kidding aside, there is a very prominent and REAL sleep regression for toddlers at 2 years of age.
