Well maybe not so big a rod but we have been having issues with Iz going to sleep at night, it would take anywhere from 30 mins to 2 hours to settle her and nothing we did worked. No rewards chart, quiet whispering, no talking, yelling at her, crying with her etc. nothing worked. She has been sleeping with no dummy for the last week and a half too and that transition has been remarkably awesome but still the mucking around, "I want water, I need to poo, my blankets are off, I want the big light on" etc.
The last few nights I have gone to go to bed after dealing with her countless times and found her curled up in our bed....awww, so tonight I decided I would put her in there straight out and eliminate the mucking around. I told her if she mucked around that I would put her straight back into her bed and she could continue that in there.
Well after reading her story, tucking her in, saying her prayers..... she is OUT.
Not a peep
She has her day sleeps in there with me lying down with her til she goes to sleep so maybe it is just that familiarity. She transfers fine once she is asleep and stays in her room until 'darks all gone"!!

Not sure why I am posting other than to say yay and yep it might cause issues later but for now I am just relieved I didn't have to fight with her for ages to get her to go to sleep!!
