Looking for advice or experiences from people who have had two young ones share a room.
Heres my situation:
Ds1 is 2.4 and ds2 almost 10mth
Ds1 sleeps in a bed generally goes to bed quietly and will eventually go to sleep with little noise, doesn't normally get out of bed until I enter the room after nap /mornings.
Ds2 still in my bedroom but I'm wanting to move out as mostly now sleeps through, is a protester at nap and bedtime. When put down cries for a couple mins then moans himself to sleep. My presence keeps him awake and he cries alot this is the only way for him to go to sleep with least amount of crying.
So today for morning nap I put ds2 down in their shared bedroom alone and he went to sleep normally had a good nap, for afternoon this is same time as toddlers nap so first sleep together and it was a nightmare. Ds1 kept getting out of bed, shouting, bouncing on the bed while ds2 cried. Ds1's noise kept ds2 awake and he kept crying more. I eventually had to get ds1 up again after he fetched a noisy toy and sat in bed with it. Ds2 then after about 10 minutes went to sleep but didnt sleep for as long as usual.
I'm dreading bedtime with an overtired toddler and trying to get baby to sleep in new room with said toddler.
So had anyone else had a some age gap share that started off an nightmare?
Thanks
