My son will be a year old on the 20th of this month and he has went from almost sleeping through the night to waking up at least four times.. his nap times have not changed at all, I have even started feeding him a bowl of cereal before bed in hopes to fill him up more for the night.. Nothing I do is working. Last night he was up 8 times. And he doesn't just wake up and cry.. He gets up and stands up in his crib and yells.. I am sooo tired everyday! HELP! Plus I have a six year old as well that I have to keep up with and I hate not having energy for her everyday:(

If he has a nap during the day,have you tried cutting that down?
Is his room dark enough?
Is he too hot or cold?
If he is looking to play at night,he is most likely getting plenty of rest during the day..
Go back to retraining him to sleep during the night,pay very little attention to him at night,no talking etc... make sure he is OK, and settle him again,keep doing that until he gets the idea that no one is going to play with him at night time.
