SLEEPING PROBLEMS

Dylan69

Hi all,

Just wondering if you all have any tips or info that i could use with my problem

My youngest now will be 2 few months time and he just started to climb over the cot when i put him to sleep.
Everytime i put him back in , he jumps out and comes out of the room. I repeat the excerise (say nothing, pick him up, avoid eye contact and put him his cot) but same time he come out of the cot and out of the room.
He is very tired.

The only was to get him to sleep was to sit in his room with and he be asleep after 10-15mins


So i want to know, i'm i giving in to him to stay in the room or is that no no for putting childrens to bed????

Time to move him into a bed?
And yes when my yougest was two I had to stay in the room with her and rub her back until she fell asleep, was just how it went.

Moving him to a bed isn't a problem really ,just that we want to know how far and long do we stick with the plan of staying in the room until they fall asleep. We never had this problem with the first one.

I suppose the oldest won't be too happy now that he has to share a room.lol

Started last monday and now the youngest, jumps out of bed at 6am and wake the oldest and both of them end up in our bed!!!:mad: playing , sleeping and talking!!!

It takes me at least 20 mins of bedtime stories to get my little one to relax as a routine for bedtime. After she picks out her 'two' books for reading I read them to her then she gets a 'tuck in' and a big hug for 'night night' at the end of the stories.

If she is overtired she calls out and plays it out for about an hour and I have to go in for regular hugs and 'night night' stuff. Eventually she falls asleep. Tis all about bedtime habits and routine. It has worked well for me thus far.

That is life. Kids will wake up at the dawn of light and will be awake and full of energy, get used to it. I havent, my little one wakes me and she is full of chat before I wake up. I miss my days of lie ins on the weekends *sob.

Sorry to say it but my child has taken away my lazy days. Oh well that is life and that is kids. I so appreciate my parents now.

Can you adjust the mattress of the cot? Is it at its lowest setting?

If it is I'd just put up with the sitting with him for a while. Seems to me like you don't really have any choice
