Hello!
I have a real problem with my DS recently. He has always been a great sleeper, no problems with anything. But for the last 3 weeks everything has changed:
1) he started making up things before going to sleep - we put him to bed and then he starts his asking for: water, pee, pooh, cover him with a blanket, etc - and he can go like this even for an hour. He is cheerful, he doesn't cry, finally he falls asleep (ofcourse it's not truth that he wants to use toilet or drink, he just wants us to come into his room)
2) everynight he gets up once and calls me - he usually doesn't cry - I come in, put him back to bed (as he usually is out of the bed) and he goes back to sleep
No significant changes in his life, no teething, no illness, no trauma.
I don't know, how to react, I don't want him to learn that everytime he wants me in his room I'm in. Should I ignore his "play"? We've just get rid of the diapers, so maybe it's not good to ignore his "pseudotoilet" needs?
His routine por the last 1.5 year till now was:
WU-7:30
Nap - 2pm-4/4:30 pm
BT - 9pm
Please, give me some advice, i'm out of ideas how to get rid of this bad habits! And it really takes me hours to go back to sleep after such "night intervention", I'm pregnant and I go to work everyday, so I'm really exhausted:(
Thank you in advance!
