Sleeping (I think its her molars hurting)

Hi there,

I am having troubles with my daughter sleeping properly during the night. She is almost 17 months old and is trying to get out the last molar. She has now got 12 teeth but has anyone else experienced bad sleeping habits with your kids while teething with Molars? I'm just concerned. I have had troubles with her sleeping for a few months now and I'm really hoping (fingers crossed) that she will get back to normal once she has finished teething with her last molar. I know she will have 8 to go but she never had troubles with the others bar these last ones.

She will NOT go to bed till about 11pm and gets up at 9am but the sleep is horrible during the night. I wake up with her about 10 times during the night. She will not sleep in her cot. Has to sleep with me so we have a single bed for her now. But there is about 4 times out of a week that i'm up at 2am till about 6am with her awake.

I just want to know if anyone has experienced this with their kids molars or do I have to take her to a place where I can get her back into a sleeping routine? I am going nuts................I need my sleep too since she is a VERY active little girl.

Thank you!
