17 month old still distressed at night time sleep...takes almost an hour each night

Thanks Black Rose. If any light does shine into the room it is only a little but enought to see DS...well, it is then enough for him to see us & he gets so excited (stimulated) and wants to play so I am not sure that this would work for him.

I am there with you. My DD either feeds to sleep (doesn't work as often these days), stays with us until 9 or 10 or 12 and she finally crashes, or we try to settle in the bedroom and we get crying etc that goes for hours. i don't have any ideas cos i haven't been able to make it any better here.

Hugs to you....soo hard. If I find the magic answer I will let you know (if only it were so simple!)
