First time posting. My DD has always been an angel at bedtime, bath, story, bed from when she was a baby.
We moved house, she was fine. Went into a bed, she was fine. Last few months - awful. She did start school in September so thinking maybe its that but she has settled really well, teacher is happy and has made lots of friends.
I feel like I've tried everything, being positive, being firm, taking away treats, using stickers and nothing is working. I have asked her and she said she doesn't want me and daddy downstairs without her and its not fair she has to sleep and we don't.
If I stay upstairs, she'll sleep but then I'm just giving in to her aren't I? DP and I both work so we look forward to the evenings together and now we don't even have that with the constant running up and down the stairs, the tears, the shouting.
Help mumsnet! Sorry tis rather long!
