DD1 is nearly 2, dd2 3 weeks old. Since a few weeks pre dd2 and post her arrival dd1 has been getting up at 5.30am - 6.30am every morning. This is obviously difficult for me with dd2 and also as she dropped her midday nap at 19 months leaves her not having enough sleep.
We tried a rabbit in bed/up clock which worked for a little bit then she ignored it. Over the last week we tried a travel stair gate on her door. Twice now I have heard her shouting for me at 6.30am and gone to get her and found her with her nappy off. This am poo was everywhere - I threw out her bedsheets it was that grim.
Is this due to the gate? How can I stop this happening??!!! Anyone had similar issues?
