15mth old suddenly wont sleep

[JuneMum06]

our 15mth old little girl was a great sleeper until a few weeks ago..she's sleep 12hrs at night at 2hrs during day
now she wont sleep,not during the day or night...dont know whats going on??
we have been rocking her to sleep since birth ( i know , cant loose the habit )
does anyone have any settling ideas?? 11.5kg baby is hard to hold/rock to sleep for too long!

Can't help, but can sympathise! Just after DD turned one she forgot how to sleep.

She normally wakes around 1am and gets into bed with us. Its a bad habit, but at least she goes back to sleep, and DH & I can too.

The same thing happened to my DS at about that age and i still dont really know why but it didnt last long. I had to put up with people (Mum!) telling me that he just doesnt need that much sleep any more coz he's not a baby! I just kept up with his normal routine and before long he went back to 'normal'. Does she have a teddy or something to cuddle and maybe a radio? These are things that are part of DS settling routine, even if he doesnt sleep, at least he'll talk to his teddy and have some quiet time and before i knew it he was slepping well again. Sorry, not much help but just wanted to say that its probably just a stage and hopefully it should pass soon...:fingerscrossed:
