Being patented to death

[Warszawa]

Morning all!

My little girl is nearly 3, sleeps well 9 times out of 10 but last three weeks it's been one thing after another meaning sleep has been worse than when she was a newborn.

I am out of practice thinking those days of prolonged sleep deprivation were behind me ( ignorance is bliss)

She has now pretty much recovered from her latest cold, but is still waking up every hour or so. I do think her nose is still dripping into her mouth which I know is horrible for her.

We never really had to do any sleep training, but I think we need to now.

We tried the cio method but obviously with neighbours it's not ideal.

She doesn't nap anymore but has taken to falling asleep at around 4 - which I know probably doesn't help.

Anyway just wondering if anyone has any advice about sleep training an older toddler - should I bother or just ride it out until she naturally settles down ( please god soon)

Also anyone going through similar fee free to share in my misery lol

I know see through very swollen and tired eyes there isn't really a point to this post so tia to anyone nice enough to unpick my ramblings and respond

See even the title is wrong lol

Parented to death !!

Do you mean going to sleep at 4 for the night? If so that is most probably the problem. It might have worked before but they're brains change continuously and now needs a different sleep schedule. I'd say reintroduce the nap at around 1pmish as that's when there is a natural decline in energy and she just might sleep. At first call it quiet time, no TV, just books, quiet play on a couch that's dimly lit or in her room with just a little light. Atleast it would give her the opportunity to rest and maybe snooze. Then make her bedtime 6 then stretch it out slowly to 7pm. So it's not such sudden changes. Just an idea 😊 good luck I hope she improves soon!
