Is anyone else having trouble with sleep at the moment. My daughter is so distressed

My daughter has been getting upset at bedtime this week and harder to resettle during the night but tonight its got so much worse. She woke around 1/1:30am and fed a little then got really upset just after 2am. I changed her, she's fed and I can't see anything to course this. I managed to finally settle her at 5am but within 10mins she was awake and distressed again. I finally got her back to sleep but now I'm not sure I want to risk putting her down again. I know I've been lucky until now but she's usually such a happy baby. We had colic around the 2 month mark and it feels a bit like that but I checked and colic shouldn't return at 5 months. I'm really hoping this is just a phase but wondering if anyone's had anything similar?

Maybe teething?

Good point thanks, she has been showing signs for months now but nothings come through. I'm going to try and put her back in bed and get a power nap before my 3 year old wakes lol. If she wakes again I'll try teathing gell, thanks.

My little girl has always been a great sleeper, sleeps in her cot from 8pm-7am, but the past few nights she has woken up twice (11pm and 3am) very upset and just wanted cuddles. She was also fighting her daytime naps yesterday, which she never does. She is teething at the minute, and also has a sniffly nose, so I am putting it down to these and hoping it will pass when she feels better :) x

Yes similar here ! My LO use to lay down for bed time and just go sleep on his own with dummy and naps most of the time too rarely had to rock him for naps. Omg now ever nap he screams like I am hurting him and I have to rock him and he won’t have his last nap no matter what I do he just gets distressed badly but then wake window is like 4h long before bed and that’s with me putting him to bed earlier😩 so then we have hell for 4 hours and he passes out on the bottle
