    Please ladies help me! I cant it anymore!

    Ok so Annabelle keeps getting up during the night and coming to us or just sitting in the lounge watching TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    How do I get her to stay in bed the hole night? I have tried putting her to bed later, doesn't work.

    The reason Im so worried is, its affecting her everyday life. She's in the worse moods all the next day. She has a day sleep but it doesn't help. I have tried a couple of days without a day sleep, to make her tired enough to sleep through the night. But again doesn't work.

    Her normal wake up time for the day is between 6 and 7. I dont even hear her get up sometimes and when I wake, its to a mess or her eating chocolate or something else naughty

    Please help!

    We had to use the gate on her door for a bit. We don't shut doors here so that was a better option.

    We also had to put locks on the cupboard and the fridge.

    When she wakes up, take her by the hand and walk her back to bed. Don't engage her in conversation or get cross (hard tho), just keeping popping her into bed and hopefully she will work out it's of no benefit to her xoxoxo

    when you find the answer let me know.. my DD does teh same, but we hjave now confined her to her bedroom and our room, she doesnt go out to teh lounge room now till the morning..

    we did what lulu said and also shut her door so she couldnt get out.

    she is better but not great. we still have 2-3 wakes a night and it takes a good hour to get her to sleep..
