Remind her all day. If she wakes up wanting you, just firmly state she needs to sleep in her own bed and take her back there. Let her know you're close by if she needs you and you can come to her but she needs to sleep in her bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transition-25-yr-old-back-to-own-bed#post-2598084 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 22:21:20 +0000 Corduroy 2598084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't go through the same thing but we love the book "A bed of your own" by Mij Kelly. It might be helpful, at least it's cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transition-25-yr-old-back-to-own-bed#post-2598070 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 21:46:10 +0000 ustechie 2598070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>could you maybe implement a reward system of some sort? sticker chart with some prize after x amount of good nights? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transition-25-yr-old-back-to-own-bed#post-2598064 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 21:31:54 +0000 Golden 2598064@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, you just don't let your 2.5 year old make the rules. You can explain that you know she wants to be with you, that you love her, and that you are right down the hall. But bedtime is for sleeping and the best place to sleep is in her own bed. So starting tomorrow that's the rule. I would tell her throughout the day that she will be sleeping in her own room. Remind her and talk about it and then follow through. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transition-25-yr-old-back-to-own-bed#post-2598044 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 20:21:42 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2598044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transition-25-yr-old-back-to-own-bed#post-2597880 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 14:33:08 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2597880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A few weeks ago my 2.5 yr old was sick in the middle of the night and I ended up sleeping in her room with her the rest of the night. From then on she would not go to bed without one of us in the room and was getting out of bed a lot to go potty or ask us for a hug. </p> <p>A few days later, DH was traveling and she woke up around 4 am and was standing by the gate at the stairs screaming for me and woke the baby up. In a moment of desperation I told LO1 she could sleep in my bed while I got the baby back to sleep (he's in a crib in our room.) She hasn't left our bed since then and insists that I lie down with her every night. How do I get her back in her own bed? </p> <p>Prior to this, she had been sleeping just fine. We converted her crib to a toddler bed about 3 months ago, but she rarely got out and slept through the night unless she was sick. </p>
