for the past 3 months she has been a complete nightmare for bedtime. Is perfect during the day except for the normal 4yr old moments, but soon as it comes to bedtime its like a switch in her brain flicks and on comes naughty mode, i'm loosing my patience rapidly. we do the bedtime routine where she has a drink, goes to the loo, I read her a story and she either has a audio story book on or a dvd on which the TV goes on timer for 1/2 hr and when it switches off its off. Now i've not been very well for a long time but been alot worse since March 09, all joints, spinal and muscle related so I have trouble esp at nights getting up and down like a yoyo even more so when I have giddy days.
I've taken toys and privledges away and when i feel like crap most of the time i end up giving in because i can't go up and down like a yoyo. I'm more tired than ever, which is not only medical related but due to DD being a pain in the arse for bed.
Any advice would be appreciated on how I can tackle this. DP isn't here every night and when he is she is so spiteful - due to being tired - as fine when not.
