My 3 year old daughter is still co-sleeping with her mom. She keeps waking up at night and crying- asking for multiple things and bizarre dream like requests. This is slowly becoming unbearable even though I sleep in the other room. My wife is not ready to go to the doctor. Has anyone experienced something similar?

Have 5 kids and it feels like we’ve ended up with one of them in our bed more nights than not. It seems like eventually it just clicks and they don’t come in anymore.

Normal bruv.. 5 here too. No wrong or right answer. Each family dynamic is different. Do what works for you. However, if you need to sleep training, be prepared for 2 weeks to a month of no sleep. Gon a have to tune out the whining and crying.. Its hard cos we work hard, we are tired and it's easy to do what's convenient.. Let he sleep so you can sleep. No judging here.

My 4 older kids all were sleeping in their beds before they turned 1.

The pandemic baby However... 😢😢

Hasn't left our bed since she was born.. We started sleep training a week ago, it's been rough, BUT, she is already staying in her room. Cries for us to come but she doesn't come right back to our room anymore.. another week, and she should learn to self soothe and she will be ok

Just be patient, plan for a 'rough' month.. and go to work..

Put her in her bed.. and if she comes back..do it again..and again..and again..and again.. after all the whining..crying..tantrums.. they will get it..

I think this is a training thing, not a doctor thing… at least not yet. She’s probably waking up at night bcs she knows she’s going to get attention / responses. Creating distance bit by bit and setting expectations and boundaries should help. Try moving your daughter to her own bed… sleep next to her or on the floor, slowly move further away over the course of weeks. Try a toddler night light and teach her red vs green. If that doesn’t work (after consistently trying) then maybe it’s time to go to a dr

The tot clock worked well for us but our daughter is a rule follower (generally). My nieces didn’t pay attention to the tot clock at all but they get away with murder and light treason every other second of the day.

We had to make it a game- incentivizing successes (one night = one star; 10 stars = something she really wanted). We adjusted the incentive once she started to get good at earning stars- from cumulative stars to consecutive stars (including wiping them all out if she broke the pattern). With her, it took about a month and she was in her room, all night, every night.

Hey all - 2 years in consulting so far as a fairly "type b" personality - relaxed, uncompetitive, enjoy socializing with my colleagues. To be clear, this is not the same as being lazy or irresponsible - I am diligent and do my work well.
