We have to lay with her to sleep and it takes her over an hour to fall asleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wont-attempt-to-fall-alsleep-on-her-own-anymore-going-backwards#post-2039486 Sun, 25 Jan 2015 12:46:51 +0000 wheres_c 2039486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Empathy here! We gave up and moved his bed into our room so no advice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wont-attempt-to-fall-alsleep-on-her-own-anymore-going-backwards#post-2039478 Sun, 25 Jan 2015 12:25:39 +0000 StbHisMrs 2039478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: That's the thing, she went to sleep on her own just fine, but she'd wake up at least five times a night!! She JUST started sleeping through the night a couple months ago (at three years old!!!) occasionally waking up for water or to go potty! I sure hope it's a phase!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wont-attempt-to-fall-alsleep-on-her-own-anymore-going-backwards#post-2039335 Sun, 25 Jan 2015 07:21:34 +0000 NovBaby1112 2039335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, common phase it seems! I'm sure it's much harder to deal with when you have more than 1 kid, so I can't speak to that. Hope it gets better for you guys soon though!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wont-attempt-to-fall-alsleep-on-her-own-anymore-going-backwards#post-2039301 Sun, 25 Jan 2015 03:44:51 +0000 regberadaisy 2039301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is very common around that age. I think with DD 1 it lasted for a week or two. I know it's been longer for some and shorter than others. </p> <p>On the bright side you had a great sleeper for 2 years prior! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wont-attempt-to-fall-alsleep-on-her-own-anymore-going-backwards#post-2039289 Sun, 25 Jan 2015 01:17:32 +0000 StbHisMrs 2039289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: Ugh. It's the worst. We're still up over here, seems every time the youngest closes her eyes, M shrieks. I don't see this ending well or anytime soon. I cherish my quiet time at night, this is making me stay up until 12-1!!!</p> <p>I hope you get some sleep soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wont-attempt-to-fall-alsleep-on-her-own-anymore-going-backwards#post-2039271 Sun, 25 Jan 2015 00:13:18 +0000 travellingbee 2039271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh I have no advice but lots of commiserations. We are in a very similar boat with an equally stubborn boy :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wont-attempt-to-fall-alsleep-on-her-own-anymore-going-backwards#post-2039270 Sun, 25 Jan 2015 00:11:10 +0000 StbHisMrs 2039270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About Tuesday of this week M started demanding that I stay in her room until she falls asleep. This is after 2 years of her falling asleep on her own, albeit still waking up. This is so new, so irritating, and we're going backwards.<br /> The big problem is that she is as stubborn as a mule, she'll literally cry until morning. Last night I gave in and had to sit in there for 2.5 hours. That resulted in an over tired baby because who the hell can go to sleep while the person you share a room with screams, hits the wall, cries, and pounds on the door. </p> <p>I'm losing my temper with her. </p>
