Hi ladies,
we moved into a new house about a month ago, and for the first couple of weeks my DD slept fine. But I think it's just dawned on her that this is her forever house, and she's freaked out. For the last 2 weeks she's refused to go to sleep unless I sit by her bed and hold her hand. This has been fine - usually taking between 10-45 mins for her to drift off. She was happily sleeping through after that, then last night she woke up at 12.30am demanding I go back and sit with her. Every time she fell asleep I tried to sneak out but she woke up each time screaming. In the end my hubby had to sit in a chair in her room for hours before she finally dropped off.
I'm trying not to panic that this is going to happen every night, but I'm worried that I've created a rod for my own back and now she'll need me everytime she wakes in the night.
Please tell me this is just a phase??
