Help. DS1 is 2 and 10 months - DS2 is nearly 3 weeks. Ever since DS2 came home DS1 has been getting up v early (5am )and coming in to us... despite having been brilliant before that (with the help of a star chart) at staying in his own room till "morning time" - when we come to get him up (usually 6.45 when my husband gets up).
The lack of sleep that we are now being subjected to (if DS1 wasn't coming in at 5 then I would go back to sleep after that feed) is beginning to wear thin.
Not quite sure how to handle it save for sending him downstairs to playroom.... but that then means he is KNACKERED by mid morning - with no nap. (need no nap as otherwise he takes ages to go to bed... you can see the vicious circle.)
Any advice welcome!
