Help with 3 year olds sleep

[NewBabyGirl2020]

Any advice would be hugely appreciated!

Highly sensitive child from day one with a scream that could shatter glass - not even a joke!

We never sleep trained and ended up cosleeping till 2. She now loves her own bed but wakes multiple times a night calling for us. If we don’t go she screammmmmssess and wonders around to find us.

I can resettle her within minutes but no matter how long I stay by her side to make sure she’s in a deep sleep, she will wake within 10 mins screaming for us again. This can go on all night so one of us ends up falling alseep in her bed from exhaustion. We would take her into our bed but she refuses to get out of her bed now and screams bloody murder if we try.

every night for the last 6 months one of us has ended up in her single bed till the morning. We thought she would grow out of it but hasn’t. We have tried multiple things and it always ends up with her screaming and going insane! We are exhausted.

Any advise on how to stop this please 🙏

That sounds so hard. I've seen it suggested to have calling out for parents tokens and kid gets a reward if they still have some left in the morning. Initially you give so many tokens they can't possibly run out so they get the thrill of a reward. Then you gradually reduce the tokens so that hopefully they call out less and less

Either that or replace her bed with a double and accept that she needs parental presence to feel secure at night
