Can anybody help me? My two and a half year old has always been a perfect sleeper. Recently she has started refusing to go to sleep in her own bed, we gave in due to our own tiredness and let her fall asleep in our bed, and then moved her into her own.
However, she now wakes up as soon as we move her and she wil cry and cry until she comes into bed with us or sleeps on a mattress on our floor. Rapid return isn't really an option as she doesn't actually get out of her bed, she just sits in it and crys.
Have done cc before, and it worked, but now when I go up at the time intervals it riles her up more and she clings to me and all possibility of her settling is lost. Do you just leave a 2 year old cry as long as it takes them to fall asleep? I feel mean but start work in Sep and this must be sorted!
