how long does ur toddler take 2 fall sleep in bed
« on: October 22, 2008, 23:59:38 pm »
hi everyone, as the q states. Hes been in his bed now for 2 weeks and its going fine, he doesnt really get out he just takes longer to go to sleep, about 45 mins, whereas in his cot was 15 mins.
it doesnt seem to matter what time i put him down either, whether its still light or dark, jsut wonderin if anyone else had the same ?

my DS seems to take longer to fall asleep now that he is in BBB--perhaps becasue of the freedom. He will getup and turn the lamp on, read some more books, etc.

my son just got into his BBB on fri, on his 2nd b-day!!!  he is going great and bedtme is no issue at all, as he is more then ready for bed at bedtime, naps on the other hand are a bt more.  Sat i had to go in 3 time as he was rolling around in his bed talking and banging the sides.  Then today he just didn't want to go to sleep??? I layed down with him for a few min and rubbed his forehead and then left before he fell asleep.  I think he was relaxed enough now to sleep but i hope he's not going to expect that every weekend at home for nap time!!!

thanks ladies, things are much better now. Its been 3 and half weeks now. I find that the darker it is sometimes the easier he goes to sleep.
As for your little un gettin out, they will get use to it, i think it took about a week and ben  was fine in it.
If he does get out at nap time, i just leave him in there, and if he doesnt sleep i put him to bed about an hour or so earlier.
I know if i make an issue out of it he wont settle, so i just go with the flow, but most times he does sleep in it for 90 mins at naptime.
