Hi! My daughter is 16 months old and is a restless sleeper. She goes to bed fine, but after an hour or so, she wakes up. I hearing her playing her music. Sometimes she is awake for 2 hours. Some nights she wakes up 3-4 times. We leave her in her crib--she never fusses that she is awake. She compensates for this night waking by still taking a morning and afternoon nap. I understand this is common for 22q11 kids.
