Night waking means loss of vital sleep for both children and their parents.

The University of Michigan Health System mentions these common causes of night waking among children:

• Having separation anxiety, especially if one or both parents are frequently away.
• Having uncomfortable pajamas, a room that is too hot or cold, being hungry or thirsty, or having wet the bed.
• Having a food sensitivity or allergy.
• Having pain (such as ear pain, teething or abdominal pain) or colic.
• Hearing noise.
