Me and my husband are struggling trying to get my little boy to stay in bed at night. He comes up early hours crying, then when we take him back to bed we have massive tantrums (not ideal during the night and also have a 1 yr old).
My husband world's shifts and is up early and is the lightest sleeper. I'm lucky that I'm relatively a deep sleeper. My house is on split level so as you can imagine, after walking down to my son's bedroom, I'm wide awake (as is my husband by this point) we're waking up absolutely exhausted as this happens most nights. We're struggling to get through the day. I know this relatively normal for his age with a growing imagination so we try and ask him why he's up during the night ,( he can never explain as he doesn't know either) it's then so difficult to make adjustments so he can sleep and stay in bed.
At the moment we have a light on, we have white noise and make sure he's snuggled up in bed so he's not cold.
Any ideas from Two very exhausted parents.
