my dd (2 nex tweek) has only recently started having such a performance when she has to go for her afternoon nap.
even if i say anything about a nap(like just now!), she starts crying and says she wants to do X, watch X etc, just so she doesnt have to go.
a couple of weeks ago, i let her go without nap for 2 or 3 days, but she was so tired and crabby by tea time and then woke up early doors, it wasnt worth it, so 'made' her have nap.
she was fine for a couple of days then this!
she sobs uncontrolably and says mummy, but wot listen to me when i answer her and wont stop crying and thats how she falls asleep(eventually)
its wearing me out!, she slept on friday night till 6.40am which was great and i actually was up before her, so we stupidly thought this was the time she started sleeping better as shed done it day before too!
but next night and last night was back to middle of night waking and not settling till i put her in spare bed with me
any ideas or tips to help?....im getting desperate now as she's been like this since she was tiny
