Piyak doesn't sleep through the night



It's been 613th day with my Piyak!

And doctor said it's normal.
for toddlers, babies, not to sleep through the night.

She said they might wake up 5-6 times during sleep.
And it is true for my little Piyak.


I thought it's just him, not sleeping through the night,
but when I started talking to other parents from church,
they all agreed with me.

Some even said my Piyak is better than their children,
since he goes to bed around 6-7 pm, some children stayed up until midnight.
That must be really crazy.


I thought, since Piyak's eczema got better after we change the water filter,
he should be fine sleeping all night,
but maybe the problem is ... just that he's too young to sleep all 8-9 hours.

Usually he wakes up 3-4 times during night.
When he goes into bed around 6-7,
he wakes up lightly around 8-9, crying for me.
And after that, 11-12 around midnight, also crying for me, and goes to sleep right away when I massage him in the back.
And... at around 5-6 am, he wakes up, crying for food.

It's a... bit tiring for me.
I'm going to deliver the second baby in just 2 weeks or so,
And I can't get enough sleep.
During the day I want to take a nap, but I have a part time job to do,
some house cleaning, laundry, cooking for my husband... and the day is over.



I've heard that 1-2 years old baby sleeps about 11-14 hours,
that doesn't add up for my Piyak. Or maybe, just close to 11 hours.

Some said it's natural for baby not to fall asleep,
they have separation anxiety, or their brain just can't handle all night,
they are dreaming,

Well, I'm not interested in theories anymore. I want him to sleep all night.


When would it stop waking up? Would it still be like this after the second child?
I could be dead by then, then.

Second one will wake up every 2-3 hours to feed him,
and first one will also wake up during night,

What should I do when they both got up at night?

I'm too scared already...
