Why won't my child go the f*** to sleep

[Makeupbabes]

He's only had a 40 minute nap today (usually has about 2 hours) & he's still friggen awake now, it's so bloody annoying! Aibu to want a few hours In the evening to myself? I swear he's scared of missing anything 😤

My 15 month old just went to sleep! And my 4yo is still awake. I've given up on getting more than 30-60 mins adult time night, it's easier now I've just accepted that. When I do get more I don't know what to do with it!

Sorry, not very helpful, but you're not alone!

How old ?

You're not alone. Resettling mine for the fifth time this evening. Not even sure what I'd do with time to myself any more.
Sucks

All 3 of mine are up and down like yo yos tonight is it a full moon??

I'm lying here with my 3 yo who is wide-a-fucking-wake.

His dad had him today and decided, after an uncharacteristic 5pm nap, to wake him at 7pm. FUCKING IDIOT.

So now, my OH is downstairs waiting for me, having come over for a rare mid-week bit of time together, and I'm stuck up here getting more and more wound up.

It sounds the opposite of the early morning thread...I am sure someone will be along soon to tell you they wouldn't allow there child to be awake at this time.
cuppa to keep you going..

Resettling mine for the third time. Gerry. You are not alone

Mine was up at 6am this morning too . I need a place on this thread and the early morning one!

My 3 year old is down and usually (touching all wood) fairly reliable until he gets into my bed in the small hours.
I am sitting by my 4 month olds cot reinserting dummy every 10 seconds and praying.

I know you're not thirsty that's bullshit
