Posting for traffic/support really.
2.5 year old has always been a very bad sleeper. I don't really know how to explain it, he just never slept well, woke up at a pin drop. I never did anything different to with ds1 who slept great.
He would at least go to sleep from awake so I had my evenings, even though he'd wake several times at night.
Then around age 2 something changed and he would cry when we left the room and somehow we ended up lying down with him to get him to sleep. This can go on for an hour.
It's driving me mad now, I just want him to go to bed.
I want to get into the habit of putting him to bed awake, after bath, book and milk, if he gets up just to keep putting him back into bed.
He doesn't cry he just thinks it's a big game to keep getting up so I can put him back in. This can go on for hours.
I want to know how long it will take if I persist.
Has anyone had a stubborn child like mine?
