Our dd 2.1 has always been a pretty grim sleeper. In the summer it had improved a lot. A few nights she slept through till 630!!! But generally the rule of thumb was up 3 times, awake at 5. We could cope with that. For the last 3 weeks she wakes at 2am and wants to come into bed with us. Once she's in bed she tantrums while one of us (usually me) calms her down. She'll sometimes go back to sleep but kicks, scratches, yells, snores etc. (very restless) then wants to get up at 430. Basically once she's in bed with us I can't sleep. I'm 21 weeks pregnant and already pretty uncomfortable. I've got morning sickness which usually starts about 4am.
She goes to bed at 630. We've tried her later but she just wakes at the same time. We've tried earlier and she takes longer to get to sleep but wakes at the same time.
She dropped her nap a couple of weeks ago.
Please tell me a magic solution. We're on the sofa at the moment. when she started her second tantrum at 345 I told her she could get up and play in the living room but in the pitch dark. She chose to lie on the sofa instead. Unfortunately she's asleep on my legs so there's no chance of me sleeping.
