I tell Indah simila Ivana,
that I am just out in the lounge or heading off to bed myself & that DH & I both love her & so does maddy & if she needs us just call out...

But in saying that, I also know Indah wakes in the middle of the night & whinges for about 3 mins, I used to get up each & every time, but by the time I was at her dopor she'd have gotten comfy & was falling back to sleep, or I'd open the door frighten her & she'd be wide awake screaming...
So in the end I let her whinge, whine almost calling out but not crying, I go to the toilet have a glass of water & then head toward her room, almost always she is quiet again & asleep til the morning, it's usually only the creaking on the floorboards that do wake her up anyways...
She knows we are there & will happily resettle but I have worked out going in wakes her up...


You will come across various ways of parenting until the day you leave Earth... there is no right or wrong way, just your way & their way....
