Thanks for all your hugs ladies, I really need them right now!

Katnap - Thanks for thinking of me, if you come up with anything let me know!

Kazbah - Yep, it's definitely become an attention seeking thing, we've stopped going in as much because we worked out that he really likes that, even if we are mad at him!

Dachlostar - Thanks for your suggestions. We currently have a nightly routine of bathtime, a story in bed and cuddles and chats. Maybe we should try waiting with him until he is drowsy like you said, I am willing to try all things!
