Upset bedtimes, toddler.

Not been here for a while..... Ds1 has been sleeping really well for ages, apart from some disturbed nights a few months ago (illness, molars etc)

Me and his dad separated and he left in November. Came back a couple of times a week after work for bedtimes. All was well. He then didn't come for 2 weeks. All was well. I'd had a big fear of solo bedtime with a baby and toddler. Turns out it was easier alone.

After 2 weeks husband turns up for bedtime . Ds1 gets very upset at the point of me putting him to bed. That was Sunday and it's been the same every night. H came again Tuesday.

Ds1 is 2.5 just about. In his cot bed as a cot. Sleeps from bedtime til around 5, wakes for a chat to himself then back to sleep til 7.30. No naps. I don't want to change to a bed yet as he will get up at 5 and I'm still up with the baby overnight. The baby also wakes up if I get up (cosleeping)

Any advice on bedtimes? I don't feel I can stop H coming twice a week but if this doesn't settle soon I may have to.
