Ok so i was at a mum and baby group meet up today with a few from our group really nice ladies. We sat chating in soft play area while the children were rounding round and one asked how my dd is sleeping as a few times before i had said shes not a good sleeper. Shes two and still wont sleep a full night and in order to get a few hours sleep I let her co sleep with me. I had tried the self settle for a few nights but in the end me dd and ds were all badly in need of sleep. I said to one of the other mums iv gave up now and shel sleep when she sleeps and then a mum from another group must of over heard and told me i should leave dd in her room let her cry and take her door handle off so she cant open the door to wake ds. My group kind of just looked at her in shock as did a few members of her group. Im all for people sharing tips on parenting if asked but not listening into strangers and telling them the need to do things. By the way im not locking my dd in her room in the dark and letting her cry Id rather me lose a few hours sleep than her be locked in a dark room scared
