Hi everyone
Well just an update on maddys situation. Two nights ago I put her to bed at 7:45pm and this time I put the gate on the outside of her bdroom door. For the last 2mnths, since she got a toddler bed, we have been laying down with her until she falls asleep. Otherwise she would run around upstairs.
Anyways, put the gate up at 7:45pm and went downstairs. She would open her door and call for us, and about 5 different times we went in and layed her back in bed. Finally at 8:20pm it was silent and she went to sleep all on her own
Then yesterday I gave her an hour nap 1-2pm. She went to bed at 7pm (with the gate across her door) and this time only opened the door 3times and was asleep in 15mins.She hasn't done that time in months
. PLus....she didn't wake lastnight and she slept until 6:45am!!!!!!
I finally feel like I'm getting somewhere with her. The naps are still a bit eratic but at least the bedtime routine is getting easier.
I'll keep you posted on how she does....Tracey
