I hate fighting with my daughter to lay down for bed time, naps, anything..She fights it thinking she is going to miss something..No matter what I do read, let her watch something, music, anything she cries an screams an then some times will laugh when I get up to lay her down or calm her down ugh she is only 1...
@ax2momma, it's hard but it's good for you both. She can sleep and you can rest too. I read some books before nap time, but in another room so going to crib is just one fast stop and not a game. It's sad to listen them cry, but it's the easiest way to do it.
@sigrit.smith12 I will definitely start doing this more! I do sometimes..sometimes it just breaks my heart lolv
The easiest thing to do is just put her down in the crib, not say anything and walk out. Gone cry max 20 minutes first time and fall a sleep, after getting use to probably gone cry max 5 minutes. Too much entertaining gives them idea, that they can manipulate with you and never have to go sleep. I have been nanny over 5 years and watched all sorts of kids.
@sigrit.smith12 I agree. I know my husband always gives into her. I try soo hard not to most the time.. I'm trying to get him to the same
