When we are rocking her she plays with our faces and gives us lots of hugs and kisses. That is, all aside from the temper tantrums that come with not wanting to go to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-bedtime-stalling-techniques#post-2147252 Fri, 17 Apr 2015 07:13:14 +0000 Mamaof2 2147252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"I have to poop"</p> <p>Either she makes herself poop (if that's possible) or she holds her poop until bedtime just to use that excuse because she always does poop! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-bedtime-stalling-techniques#post-2146944 Thu, 16 Apr 2015 21:18:58 +0000 PinkElephant 2146944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Her favorite game is I don't want it/nooooo I need it. She insists that we take away something important to her - her doggy (lovey), baby doll, etc., or that we don't put her in her sleep sack. To the point of hysterical tears if we don't comply. Once we do comply, she lets out an evil giggle, and as soon as we leave the room she starts wailing for us to bring it back. At this point, it's easier just to play the game!</p> <p>She also likes to ask for more water when her cup is clearly full.</p> <p>Tonight she told me Swiper (from Dora) was coming and she wanted to come in my bed/come upstairs...that seemed like she genuinely was frightened, but she could have been pulling my leg. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-bedtime-stalling-techniques#post-2146942 Thu, 16 Apr 2015 21:17:10 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 2146942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She always asks for a book 'just one more time?'<br /> She needs the same four songs sung to her<br /> She throws her 'buddies' out of her crib one by one, then yells 'I need help!' Until someone comes to rescue them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-bedtime-stalling-techniques#post-2146916 Thu, 16 Apr 2015 21:01:32 +0000 Smurfette 2146916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>5 more mins<br /> Water<br /> Ice<br /> Wipe(wipe her nose)<br /> Tissue<br /> Hug<br /> Kisses<br /> More hugs<br /> Baby/monkey/Mickey</p> <p>Pretty much all tonight </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-bedtime-stalling-techniques#post-2146914 Thu, 16 Apr 2015 20:59:13 +0000 lovehoneybee 2146914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"I go potty!" </p> <p>Lately, though, he's been singing his lullaby to me. It's short, so I usually sing it through three times, but when he sings it to me he'll try for 4, 5, 6 times. But it's so adorable and I lovd hearing him do it that I'll usually let it go on longer than I really should...I'm a sucker, lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-bedtime-stalling-techniques#post-2146908 Thu, 16 Apr 2015 20:55:32 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2146908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually something to the tune of missing his garbage trucks...

The first few times we let her eat, and now she thinks she's entitled to a bedtime snack every night. She's doing it right now, and it's driving me crazy! </p>
