Pediatrician 's  Response
n my opinion you child seems to have sleep induction difficulty. These children wake up in the light phase of their sleep and then have difficulty falling asleep. You may try giving them a transition toy which they can take with them to bed. You may be with them in their room but do not bring them back to your room as this will become a habit.
