She's been going through a phase of crying at bedtime, but it *might* be starting to get better.</p> <p>She's 16 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-toddler-protest-bathtimebedtime#post-992054 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 06:29:06 +0000 T.H.O.U. 992054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She does the back fling, goes limp when we try to pick her up, and cries. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-toddler-protest-bathtimebedtime#post-992053 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 06:24:27 +0000 looch 992053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine dumps the water out of the tub.</p> <p>But now I realized he wants to sit on the toilet before he goes in for his bath and take off his own clothing. So we do that first and blow dry his hit after... He lives the dryer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-toddler-protest-bathtimebedtime#post-991878 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 22:48:32 +0000 winniebee 991878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He cries when I take him out of the bath and cries til we sit in his rocker to read. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-toddler-protest-bathtimebedtime#post-991850 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 22:13:06 +0000 mrbee 991850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He just stays up for forever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-toddler-protest-bathtimebedtime#post-991841 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 22:07:18 +0000 yin 991841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO has been protesting bedtime for months.
