Posting here as more a sleep issue than a step parenting one, but problem is dss5 and his early rising! No matter what time he goes to bed, he is up a few times in the night calling for dad, DP then has to get into bed with him till he drops off again. Then from about 5.30-6ish, dss5 is awake, loudly, and ready to go for the day. This would be fine but he shares a room with my ds4 who often gets woken by him, but who when he is on his own is a rigid 7-7 sleeper. DP does his best to sneak dss out and downstairs when he wakes early, but always manages to wake everyone! Then we end up with tired, grumpy kids for the weekend and parents who are ready for bed shortly after they are! (luckily my dd2 is in her own room and somehow sleeps through it all!)
Any advice on how to deal with this? I'm fed up of grumpy tired weekends.....
