22 mos old and having sleep issues
DD is 22 mos old, still nursing, and is an awesome kid. Happy, well-behaved, kind. But, sleeping....ohhh, the sleeping. For the last week, she's been waking up at least 3-4 times a night (she only sleeps 9-10 hrs a night max), crying for "mommy milk." I know she doesn't need it that much...usu 1-2x/night other times. Well, after a few times, I had my husband turn on Dora to try to distract her (we co-sleep) and we noticed that she was sleeping. Screaming, crying, and begging for mommy milk in her sleep. It took him a few minutes to wake her up, but once he did and said "snuggle with daddy," she'd almost immediately lay down w/ him and go to bed w/o mommy milk. This is making me crazy! At 10 weeks preggo, I need my sleep, and I can't imagine giving her mommy milk 4x/a night is good for my body.
Anyone have experience with this? Advice? Please help!

At 21 months DS would wake up 3 to 4 times a night screaming. I don't still nurse, he doesn't talk much so never asked for anything, but would scream and scream. It was HORRIBLE. No clue why. Lasted a month and a half, and now he is great. It happened to other kids his age too... teething maybe, growing pains, separation anxiety, bad dreams... idk why. Good luck
