Hi
Ana was up every 15 min at night for 2 months..then it went down to every 30 min for awhile..then every hour..then for months it was about 4-6x a night..even at 26 months old she is sometimes up at least 1x..she doesnt go to sleep until 11 or 12 MN and is up at least 1x and is up by 8 am and doesnt take a nap during the day..
I agree with Becky..give it time..make sure he isn't in any pain from teething, isn't hungry, wet etc..give him lots of love and reassurance..never ferberize a newly adopted baby/child..it took Ana until 23 months old to sleep most of the night..it depends on their temperment etc..if he was sleeping so well in Guatemala..chances are once he is more comfortable and bonded etc..he will be sleeping well again..I was like a zombie for the 14 months she was home..would be lucky to get a shower every 2 or 3 days..she also would only nap for 5-10 min at a time. Took her about 6 months to relax and take better naps..then after her vaccine reaction she is back to being restless, no nap, resltess at night etc..but before that she was finally getting better..
Not only has he been through a huge change,,he may be starting to teeth..he may have been underfed in foster care and may need to catch up on his weight..Ana was eating every 2 hours round the clock at first..she was just so hungry..
It will take time..I would recommend co sleeping and carrying in a sling.baby massages really help to relax them also...Ana would only fall asleep during the day if I had her in the Maya or baby back pack..take care..
