Don’t know what to do..
My 2.5 yr old is going to make me lose it. Seriously.
Ever since he was a baby he never lets his dad, Grabdma, NO ONE do anything, won’t let him lay with him for naps, won’t let him put him to bed, I cant harldy leave him to run an errand anymore... NOTHING!
I’ve had to literally sit with him for 45-1hr every single freakin night until he falls asleep because he will scream bloody murder, tear out of the room after me because I leave. We live in a super small house and my room is smack dab next to his.
I have his nightlight on, music lightly playing, his door open etc.
Just recently had our second baby, so I said IM DONE!! So I started really working with him as far as sleep.
Got to the point where he would cry just a little but would be ok with me leaving.
But now he’s back to freakin needy!!
I am about to lose it!! This is absolutely unnecessary and rediculous.
If I bring him back to room, reassure him its ok, nothing to be scared of, mommy is right in her room sleeping, he will just do it all over again.
And honestly, tearing his butt up with a spoon doesn’t phase him in the least.
So that is out of the option apparently.
Im at my wits end. This has to stop. He needs to stop being so dependent on me.
How can I get him to cut some ties to me and depend more on daddy? He freaks out if I leave for just a little bit! So stupid!!!
It hurts my husbands feelings so bad when he isnt able to help out for anything, he wants to step in all the time but isn’t able to without this kid screaming up a storm.
Im typing this thinking, dont post, this is stupid no one cares.
But I need to get it out... Before I explode. Because I’m about to lose it. And NO that doesn’t make me a bad mommy, that just makes me human.
And Im posting anonymously because I just dont want to be judged.
