Need advice or something???

Question

My daughter ever since she turned 2 years old she doesn't sleep a full night in her bed she wakes up every day at 2am every day we can't take it anymore I'm 33 weeks and my husband wakes up at 3am to work than he's all tired because we are both sleeping on the edge, ppl have suggested the crying method we tried doesn't work she doesn't calm down keeps on screaming louder crying, what can I do??

Answer

The crying method does work but you have to stick to it. It fails if you give in. You go in every ten minutes, say shush, tuck them in and leave and keep doing it for AS LONG AS IT TAKES (emphasising not shouting lol) and it will work.

Answer

Does she go back to sleep? You need to determine if it’s temporary like she’s teething (molars?) or if you need to adjust something- maybe she’s hungry and if so a snack closer to bed time will be good, or maybe you need to adjust her nap time.  Not sure CIO is best for a two YO.  Maybe a wake up clock? The one that goes green when it’s ok to get up and until then child learns to stay in their bed.

Answer

It sounds like nightmares or terrors if I'm reading correctly, I grew up with them and still deal with them. My tips are turning music on for her to listen to as she sleeps (or nature sounds)stuffed animals or pets to lay with, a nightlight. I had really bad sleep paranoia so my door couldn't be closed in the slightest, doorknob to wall.

Answer

Get a bigger bed! 😊
