My DD 17mo has had a vomit/tummy bug and was sick a lot of yesterday. She was also very sleepy but still managed to sleep until 6.15am this morning. Since then she has dozed, managed a little drink and a piece of dry toast and grizzled. She wanted to go back to bed just after 8am so I let her, she is exhausted. My MIL has just phoned and I told her DD was poorly and asleep - she said I shouldn't be letting her sleep as I need to keep her up and tire her out for her afternoon nap? She was emphatic that I should keep a poorly toddler awake. Now, I quite like my MIL but this is not good advice is it? If I wake her up she'll just cry and fall asleep on me - right now she's asleep in her cot while I drink tea and MN!
