it strikes me that putting her back in her cot now would be going backwards and that you may just be faced with this all over again when you make the transition again in 6 months, or whatever. I think you've got to ride this out, but I'm sure that is much easier said than done
Thanks Cath and yes I think you're right, we may have just as much trouble in another 6 months so might as well try and sort it now
I have just gone through 45min of getting Ry to sleep in his BBB for a nap and it is clear that he is OT. He is just getting over an illness for a few days so I was putting him in bed very early and have had absolutely no issues. Then today (selfishly..I wanted both in bed at the same time) I pushed him and he is now so clearly OT it is not funny!!!
(((hugs))) Sarah, did you get him down? it's not selfish to want them to sleep at the same time!!
Yes I am concerned she may be OT...chronically so perhaps. But then the days she naps it's EVEN harder to get her in bed
She was at nursery yesterday, I had to wake her at 7.15am which is unusual but she'd had a NW so I think she was shattered. She napped 1.05-1.45 at nursery, I had her in bed at 8.15pm, she messed around til 8.30pm, with me sitting silently at her gate, ignoring her. At half 8 she came over and was wailing at the gate. I was SO fed up last night, had loads to do as they are both at my mum's today and I needed to get all meals, changing bag etc ready, so I got in bed with her
She was asleep by 9pm, which is still way too late but earlier than if I'd fought with her. She had a NW at 2am, v upset, crying out etc, but settled quite quickly when I went in there, then up for the day at 7.10am...
I am dreading tonight, DH will be at footie so I'll be on my own dealing with them both.
Steph, hope you had a decent night in the end!!
