I’ve gotten into the happen with my 3.5 year old that at bedtime I stay in his room, sat on the floor next to his bed, stroking his leg/arm etc till he falls asleep (30-60 mins per night). He then wakes up Atleast twice, where I have to repeat the above but it’s usually less time. He wakes for the day around 6am.
When he is with his dad he goes to sleep alone and sleeps all night u too Atleast 7am. So he isn’t scared or anything, he clearly just knows that I will sit with him like an idiot !
How do I stop this? I am absolutely shattered. Do I just cold Turkey it? Refuse to stay with him, and have to keep putting him back to bed as he will
No doubt get out of bed and start kicking his door etc when I say I’m not staying with him?
