Hi everyone,

I am after some ideas to get our 2.5yr old out of our bed at night!!. My husband and I are at our wits end and either one of us is 'kicked' out of our bed and in to the spare bed every night because of our sons nightly thrashing.

I co-slept with Joshua from newborn until he was 1, which was probably a mistake. I just found it easier to breastfeed this way. Since then we've had trouble getting him to sleep in his own room. He flat out refused to sleep in a cot when he was little, so we just ended up taking him to our bed at night because we needed the sleep, and it just seemed easier Now at 2.5yrs old, we are having huge troubles trying to get him to sleep in his own bed. He will go to sleep in his own bed at the start of the night (if we lie with him), but sometime during the night he will come in to our bed. Its got to the stage where we don't even hear him come in anymore. When we talk to him about it, he says he doesnt like his room and he assumes that our bed is his bed!!.

I know its entirely our fault for not setting a routine when he was younger, but we need to get him in to his own bed. Does anyone have any ideas how to do this??.
