How often
Does your kid climb into your bed? My toddler use to sleep in her room all night and now she seriously runs into our room like 4 times a night. I feel like she wakes up and her first thought is let's climb into their bed! I have to wait for her to fall back asleep then carry her back into bed. Sometimes I just give up but she's getting big and I don't sleep well being pregnant and having a toddler kicking me.
We cosleep a lot. Since the ordeal with my sister and her bf, dd has a hard time sleeping alone. It might be my anxiety rubbing off on her. I’ll get her in the habit of sleeping on her own soon. She does go to sleep alone but wakes up around 1 and won’t go back to sleep unless she’s in my bed with me.
But I want my bed back.
If you really are wanting to avoid co-sleeping I'd say put her back her own bed immediately once she hops into yours, letting her fall asleep in your bed then moving her afterwards only confirms to her that is ok for her to do it.
It might mean crying for a few nights & repeatedly putting her back instead of sleeping yourself but the alternative is having her in your bed whilst you have a new born to take care of. Some people are happy to co-sleep with multiple children but if you're not I'd start now & stop letting her fall asleep in your bed.
Take her back to her own bed & say night night we will have cuddles in the morning or something & leave. That's what I'd do... I'm a harsh mean mummy ?
Unfortunately I have a 18 month old and a 3 year old sleeping on my bed and it's so uncomfortable and I'm 29 weeks I'm getting to the point I can't handle it anymore so it's about time for me to crack down cause I can't take it my kids got a big head and she digs it into my back at night ugh I need some relief
My almost 5 year old has been coming into our room since he was 2!!! My husband would take him back to his bed but he would fall asleep in there. That’s when I️ was pregnant with his brother. Now that he’s almost 5 he sleeps in a little couch/bed next to our bed. He wakes up now to go pee and comes into our room. But he knows he’s not to come in the bed so he sleeps next to our bed
My little girl is 5 and she ends up in my bed at least 3 times a week. I have just got a blanket and pillow in the floor by my bed so she doesn't keep me awake. She tries to get in my bed but I tell her she has to lay in the floor cause there isn't enough room. She's just happy not being in her room.
So last night she woke up only once and started walking into our room and I quickly picked her up and rocked her for a couple minutes until she passed out. I laid her back down in her room where she stayed until the
morning. Hoping it's not just a one time thing.
