2 year sleep regression

[0MumofOne0]

My dd has always been a great sleeper. We would say goodnight and she would always go down without a fight. But the past few days... Actually since she turned two... She's been fighting it. I've tried soothing her but then she thinks it's playtime. I've tried leaving her to cry but then she works herself up that she would actually get sick!! HELP!!

My 2 year old has started protesting at having to go to bed. She's not distressed, just doesn't want to miss out on whatever is happening while she's sleeping.

I treat it as a behaviour issue rather than a sleep issue, now she's older.

We say nan night, leave, keep the door open. She will protest and grumble, but settles within a minute or two. Then close the door when she's asleep.

Same happened with our 2 year old and it was solved easily by leaving the door open like in Fate's experience, but we leave the door open all night.
