Oh no My first born did that, when she wanted to eat what she couldn't have before bed. It was heartbreaking.

Its much harder when its you doing it yourself, can your partner do it? Can you leave and go for a walk or drive so bub can settle with someone else? My daughter will eat when I am not around, the bugger...

The hardest thing is being strong and pushing on when they're so upset about it. I guess I have been lucky that she's taken to it fairly quickly but we did have our fair share of rough nights. Can you prepare her during the day by talking to her about the new way to do things now? Say the new routine will be shower, bed, book, sleep? Or that you'll take turns with daddy to do bed time?
