How Can I Persuade My 2 And Half Year Old Toddler To Stay In Bed All Night And Sleep For Longer?

Admin — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 20:57:29 +0000

Help. One sleep deprived parent here. My daughter who is two and half is waking more times in the night than a newborn. In the middle of the night she’s in and out of her bed like a yoyo and wakes obscenely early (5.30). She has a very consistent bed time routine i.e. bath, story bed and I have no problems getting her to sleep but anytime from midnight onward she wakes and then wakes the rest of the family. She creeps into our bed and no matter how many times I put her back to bed, she doesn’t seem to get the message. Her comprehension of things is good. She also wakes obscenely early. She still has a day time sleep as she seems not to be able to get through the day without it. Should I cut this out? I have a young baby who sleeps better than my toddler and now I’m back at work, I’m desperate to resolve this (and get some sleep myself). Any ideas welcomed!
