Sleep regression?

Is anyone else's 2yo not sleeping at night like they used to? My son would sleep pretty good, even if he woke up he'd go back to sleep on his own. But for the past 2.5 weeks he's waking up in the middle of the night and won't go back to sleep for hours. I have been bringing him to the big bed because otherwise he will scream non-stop (and we've outgrown the rocking chair; he's tall for his age). I'm pretty sure it's the 2yo sleep regression since he practices his words he's learning. Anyone else not been able to sleep for a few weeks? It's driving me insane.

Mine is doing this too! It’s rough

We’ve had some very every rough sleep throughout his life but the last few weeks may be the worst? Right now he’s split the last 6 out of 8 nights, plus other wakings. Hoping it’s the regression and molars and we get back to sleep soon.

Yup! He was such a fabulous sleeper and consistent; however, the last 3-4 weeks he will wake up on the dot around 11:30. My husband just had surgery and can’t help to know fault of his. So I’ve tried helping him soothe and go back to sleep, but he will wake back up within an hour or so. I’m too tired and just let him sleep with me.

Since his birthday a month ago. Once he’s asleep he’s been sleeping great these last couple of week. But falling asleep has been horrible. It’s been getting better the last few nights. They say their imagination is ramping up, and he loves all the Halloween. I think the mix scared him and he was scared to go to sleep at night because nap time was fine.

Yes. Bed sharing since birth here, and we're currently in a phase of more waking up. Lots of verbal learning and possibly molars coming in

Yes! My daughter has been getting up near enough every night for the past week and usually takes up to an hour to get her back to sleep. It’s so difficult when you’ve got to get up at 6:30 the following morning lol.

@Allison same! My son is very tall and heavy and sitting in the rocking chair at 1,2,3,4 am is difficult and exhausting so I've been bringing him to bed too. Probably not the best habit, but my god, I'm so exhausted. My husband tried to go soothe him one night and my son went ballistic cause it wasn't me, so my husband can't help cause I have a velcro mama's boy.
