A. at this age if there is disturbance and sleep it might be due to some type of physical disturbance or due to environmental disturbance. you have to rule out teething pain which might be causing discomfort. see for any gastric problem like gas or digestion problem (constipation/ diarrhoea) due to the food the child might be consuming which might be causing discomfort. you can give feed to the child because sometimes due to hunger the child might not be able to sleep p environmental disturbance like temperature variations which might be either hot or cold weather. change in pillow or mattress. changing place of sleeping can also disturb the sleep

A. It is going to take some time but if your child is waking up running up that could be a possibility that your child is not an immediate sleep now the sleep is becoming less but it is going to take some time mostly by the age of 12 1 1/2 years we can expect the cycle to become better
