Off schedule

Zee

Hey mommies! I’m so off schedule with my 19 month old! We all got sick and I’ve been so bad with his schedule! He’s been in my bed for weeks now cuz he will cry and scream in his crib! Any advice on getting back on his routine an back to his schedule? It was dinner 6-7 then bath then book then sleep! No where near that now

My son would never sleep if I didnt walk away and let him cry until he realizes ok shes not coming back time to sleep. Sometimes hell play in his bed and then I call through the monitor and tell him to lay down and go to sleep and then he does.

If he’s consistently going to bed way later, I would just set his bedtime back 15 minutes earlier and do that for a few days until you think he is used to it, then 15 min more etc. do same bedtime routine before hand so he knows its bed time. If you are also trying to get him back to his crib, I would start with naps. When my little guy fights it I will tell him sternly “lay down. Go to bed” and he will throw himself dramatically in his crib. It makes me laugh. With my oldest I would put toys in her crib and she would play with them and then fall asleep. It distracted her enough to stay in her crib

I’ve also have let them both cry when I’m at my wits end. It’s not necessarily the easiest to here them cry, but it def worked for me
