Im soooo tired...Dont know what to do anymore!

I've thought of using a nightlight, so he can "see" his way to lay back down on his own. But then someone said that a nightlight is too stimulating for them?

Thanks for all your responses ladies. You've put a smile back on my face with all your hugs and encouragement.

How did you go last night ? better than us I hope Kai was in our bed at 10.30 the little bugger.....

I think its those moving and sound making night lights that stimulate them too much... You could always give it ago one night if it makes it worse then dont do it again...

So much of parenting is trial and eara(sp?)

He was in my bed from 2am....

He went to bed at 8pm (that was a bit later than normal cos he didn't wake up from his arvo nap til 5pm) then was awake again 10pm. Laid him back down and he went to sleep.

Then he woke up at 1.30am. Left him til it turned into a cry then went in to lay him back down. Then he woke up at 2am (probably hadn't actually been asleep) left him til it turned into a cry again, then gave up and put him bed with me as i had to work today and couldn't have kept that up for another 4 hours....

Aaaaarrrrrrrrggghhhhhh!!!!
