To onder if i should be having this friend to stay

[doubleginplease]

I am a bit concerned about a friend who is coming to stay in a couple of weeks.

Her 2 year old is a bad sleeper and says generally will be up and fussing at 2am and will scream if she is left to it or when they try and settle her. My friend tells me that she she often does not go back to sleep until the morning and this has been going on for a year. If they attempt sleep training she gets louder and louder and is eventually sick everywhere.

I've got a 2 year old too and I am concerned that her child will wake mine up with crying and we will be having a scream off at 2am. mine normally sleeps well but I appreciate this could change at any time. DS is a relatively light sleeper and does wake up with loud noises. I do think crying might wake her up. They are staying 3 nights.

AIBU to discuss it with my friend as an issue or should i just leave it and hope that it doesn't happen? Part of me feels Im being a bit sensitive/self about my DS needs.

I think it is fine to make the monitor request and ask that they do all they can to keep her settled and not waking your child.

With such severe sleep and food issues I think I would be seeking advice via the GP and a paediatrician. Enjoy her company, listen and be supportive and steer her towards MN!

We went to stay with family when mine was 15 months & regularly woke at night DESPITE co-sleeping! It definitely woke the entire household! They put up with it kindly as it was my parents and in laws and we visit only once in few years - for few days. However, we certainly felt like a huge burden on them, with the night waking, food dependencies, occupying bedrooms & bathrooms & needing everyone to be quiet once DD slept off. Just decided to avoid until DD2 is a good sleeper.

Can you request them to sleep in the same room as their child so they can shut the door and cobra

Oops..not Cobra...contain the chaos!!

Poor little lady has been to see a specialist but i don't think they've had a diagnosis.

Apparently they've just go back from holiday so they said they'd give me an update on how she was. Im still nervous as don't want to be creamed myself with my DS and 7 months pregnant (I am exhausted as it is).
