Just after some suggestions as to what to do with my DD! Shes driving me spare and the lack of sleep is horrible!
DD is 2 and has started waking up late at night, switching on her light and trashing her room....she never comes out which is something i spose but i spend the next couple of hrs going in and out turning off her light and putting her back in bed. I have tryed reasoning with her and even bribeing her! Nothing is working! :wall:
What else can i do??
take the light bulb out and leaving minimal in her room. Tell her why your doing it...god she's cluey enough you know that.
She might be lashing out to cause of having Seb...she was so use to having just you for herself and its just her way of getting it out
:hug:
Minny..... Our DS1 started doing this when DS2 was born so we took all toys out of his room.....he couldn't reach the light switch but would turn his lamp on so we took his lamp out of his room. He stopped it within 2 nights.
Tho, we moved Aus Day weekend and he started doing again here at the new place for no reason but has stopped it now.....we just ignore him when he does it and don't acknowledge it and it worked and he has stopped it now.
I second that, if she cannot put on the light she may just sleep. If she does try to wreck things then I would remove anything she is trashing, even if it means she only has a bed in her room. At 2 she is old enough to realise what is happening and why I would think.
LOL why didnt i think of taking the light globe out! She was playing up a bit since seb came home but she seems to have settled back in now. I expected she would and she hasnt been to bad which is good.
I took the light globe out and she wasnt impressed...and proceeded to turn the hallway light on to see :o so took that out as well. Seems to have worked :dance:
Thanks for the help ladies :)
