Baby suddenly waking

Help

My baby is 9 mths and started waking at 2 am and wont go back to sleep.

Ive had to get her up. She will usually go back at 4 or 5.

Im scared of creating bad habits though.

Will it pass? Am i making it worse getting her up.

I wouldn't get her out of bed, I change nappy, give bub his bottle and tuck him in then sit next to his cot with my hand on his back until he goes back to sleep. Can take awhile sometimes but they do create 'routines' very quickly and the habits can be hard to break. I did try putting him in bed with me but he wants to play as soon as he's out of his bed. He's only waking once or twice a week around 2am now instead of every night. Goodluck, you do what suits you and your bub, you know her better than anyone else :)
