My dd has this really annoying habit.
She kicks off all her covers, no matter how tightly tucked in, and then cries/moans in her sleep because she is cold. She stops this noise as soon as someone cover her up. However she does not wake up at all while she is doing it. So it is all very well to say 5 year old should be able to cover self up - she clearly should and can - but she is not awake so she doesn't do it. The noise obviously wakes me up and so I go in and cover her up - then she is quiet again.
I can't think of what to do about this because if I just left her she would keep moaning and I would end up more awake that ever. Eventually I assume she would wake up too but seemingly would take a while as I don't always go in instantly. She is always tucked in with a sheet under the duvet to hold it in place but it does no good. She would get out of a sleeping bag as tried this.
Any practical solutions anyone can think of? She has been similar since very small but used to wake up. In summer it is not so bad as she is usually not too cold without covers!
