Does your 2-2.5 yr old sleep on their own all night?

[Orangepen13]

Just trying to figure out the norm. By on their own I mean: in their own bed without a parent present. Please answer yes if 80% or more of the time they do.

TIA 🙏

Nowhere near.

None of my NCT groups do either; even though half sleep trained.

Yes - both of mine did.

My prediction is that your poll will end up with thr large majority saying yes but the comments will be predominantly from co sleepers

Not at the moment but we are converting our space so she'll have her own bed again.
She's 2.5 and sleeps in with her dad while I'm in with 12mo DS as he still currently wakes in the night for breastfeeds

Yes. DD (34 months) sleeps in her own room, in her cot, for 12 hours a night and has done since we moved her to her own room at around 13 months. Her baby brother (6 months) also sleeps on his own

Both of mine did from 6 months

Probably about 80% of the time yes. However my older two did not at this age. They started sleeping through the night around 2.5yo.

Yes, own room from 9 months.

Yes, DS (almost 3) sleeps in his own room in a cot (from 6 months).

I stopped co-sleeping as soon as he could roll.

We do let him into our bed for storytime and cuddles, and when he is poorly, but that is it.

No. I more often than not wake up to either middle or youngest (or both like last night) in my bed when they’ve snuck in. They go to bed on their own no problem in their room (they share a room), but if they wake up they usually sneak into my bed. If I’m still awake I take them back to bed, if I’m asleep I’m so used to it I rarely wake to them getting in my bed. I’m not bothered, I like to go to sleep on my own so I can fidget as much as I want to go to sleep. After that, I’m all about whatever keeps the peace.

Yes, has slept in her own room since 7 months old.
Sleeps in her own bed every night, she's 2.5.

I've never slept / shared a bed with either of my kids. Both slept in own rooms/beds since 7 months old.

Both always slept all night.

I said no but it’s about 50%-60% of the time and she’s only been in her new bed a few weeks. When she does come to our room it’s often at 5am and she’ll stay in our bed til 6am then we get up.

Yes, she's 2years 3months and has done this since about 12 months.

She's my 3rd and they were all pretty similar. Coslept/next to me until 6months, own room with waking until 12 months, then the waking stopped.

Yes, DS is almost 2.5 now and loves his own space to sleep in. He's slept through the night since he was 6 weeks old in his own bed. The only time he's ever woke up in the night is 2 or 3 times to vomit when he's had a sickness bug and even then he's desperate to get back into his own bed. No sleep training ever involved.

Ours slept through the night by 10wks. They’ve been in their own cot throughout. Own room at 7m. They only don’t sleep through when ill. We have been blessed with a very good sleeper, quick story, then they go off to sleep within seconds and sleep for 11-12 hrs.

He did at 2.5, never heard a peep from him
all night from 10 weeks old to about 3.5.

He’s just turned 4 and he runs into our bedroom what feel like 100 times a night!

Yes. My eldest was sleeping through on her own at 8 weeks. My youngest wasn’t reliable until 6 months as we had to do dummy runs. At 2-2.5 though they were rock solid. Neither have ever slept in my bed!

Yes, DS who was 2 in September, sleeps in his room in a cot for 11+ hrs a night and has done since he was 6 months old.

Well my daughter is well she sleeps through and has since 2. But she has reflux that is often not controlled by medication and that upsets her sleep. She has allergies and they disrupt her sleep. She had a reaction to a slice of sausage and that caused her to have a rash covering the entirety of her torso for 6 weeks and was itchy at bed time. She doesn't like covers so we have just bought her a heated under blanket kept on low.

For my daughter sleep is a delicate balance. I don't sleep through the night either and can be awake twice for a drink or a wee too

When my dad was a baby he slept through the night from the day he got home from hospital at 8 weeks when we was 36 weeks gestation corrected!!

My DD went into her own room at 6 months.

My dh and I agreed 2 things re sleeping

1. at no point on time would our children sleep in our bed once they went into their own rooms.
2. Children go to bed at Xpm and don't leave the bedroom until morning. No playing in the playroom, no coming downstairs... They stay in their room.

However, we are fortunate enough that both of them have a cot AND bed in their rooms....
Meaning when they are sick and need to sleep upright / are having a bad night etc one of us goes in and stays with them.
I don't think we could do this if they were in a bed room that could only fit a crib and a wardrobe

My 3.5 YO sleeps in her own bed all night about 75% of the time now. It's been gradually increasing in the last 6 months. However, when she wakes up now, she's pretty happy to be quietly led back to her bed and usually snuggles down and goes back to sleep within a minute or so.

At that age all mine did.

Yes Dd has done since then (she’s now 7) but I had to be very very firm and do sleep training from 18 months. Honestly took about 5 days to crack it (I did gradual retreat) and had to continue to implement it regularly until she was about 3, but I was too tired to carry on waking up all night 😅

Yes! From 6 months she was sleeping in her own room.
We had her in our bed when she was ill or badly teething.
Now she's 24 months old and loving her own space. She's asking to go into her room and cot when she's tired.

Never once! Have to bedshare for at least a few hours every night always at the start of the night and then at various times throughout.

Yes both of mine did- but I’m quite harsh on sleep and think between 1-2 yrs of age it’s better for a child to learn to sleep independently, lights off and parent leaves the room. 1 of my children I had to sleep train (not CIO before people go mad)- and the other has always been very independent and comfortable being left.
