Hi there, my boy is 4 yrs old and has been sleeping great for few years, had our moments but always came thru. Now all of a sudden he doesnt want to 'sleep alone' and im at my wits end!
Im a single mum, he sees his dad, lucky to see him one nite a week tho and has a baby brother who sleeps in his room with him for some time now.

So different set up there. When here with me hes been great! Gets up every nite for a pee and asks for help which is fine cos goes back to bed.

Ive tried everything, leaving lights on, music, every teddy he could want, and same routine. Nothings helping. Only started last friday! Help!

Ah bless him! It’s definitely tough and it sounds like you’re bending over backwards. Did it start after coming back from dads? As he had a bad dream that has frightened him? How does he sleep at dads?

I would love to say I have an answer for you, but my girl is 9 and still refuses to sleep in her own bed.
