For various reasons (nighttime hell, partner exhibiting signs of stress, the fact that we’re both struggling at work and I’m pregnant and due in February) we are at the end of a very long road with our 22-month-old. She’s always been a poor sleeper and we’ve tried everything and always taken a gentle led by her approach, but we are at a stage where this can’t go on any longer. Our main issue is her waking up for hours in the night.
All the articles I’m reading for controlled crying seem to be aimed at parents of babies, not toddlers who stand at the end of the cot and scream for you. Any practical advice for tackling it with a toddler?
Please, no criticism, I know it’s for everyone but it’s not a decision we’ve made lightly and I feel shit enough as it is!
