Hi, I was wondering whether any of you lovely ladies could shed some light on the current sleeping issue we have (it follows a number of other problems we?ve faced along the way !!).
My 22 month old DS climbed/toppled (we think he may have tip toed and pulled himself over) out of his cot for the first time the other night. Luckily he was unhurt however, it put the fear of god into us and we decided to take one side of the cot off and put a gate on his bedroom door.
He?s never been a good sleeper and by taking off the side he seems to have gone back several steps. He either falls out or gets out of the cot on every waking ? last night he got up 6 times- and stands in the corner of his room and cries. He stays there until somebody goes into him. His cry indicates that he may be scared.
So, my question is?.should we put the side of the cot back on?? I don?t feel he is ready for a bed and I don?t want him to associate his cot with negative thoughts.
Please advise xx
