Many of you ladies already know I have a 3 year old toddler. He has never been afraid of the dark nor ever woken up out of his sleep. But now it seems that he's scared and always turns the light on and cries and says he is scared... Now have any of your babies not been afraid of the dark and than went through a phase of being scared? My mind is running out of ideas and I am clueless how to get him too sleep fully through the night again. I tried melatonin, warm baths, reading with him.. Any other ideas that I can possibly try? ?

Does he have a dim night light?

We have one but only used it a couple of times and stopped cause he would stare at it and not sleep. But I am going to try it tomorrow night and see how it goes.

What about a toy he can cuddle and press that lights up (glow worm or something else) so it's not always on
I would also find out what he's scared of (monsters, being alone, dark) so you can come up with a solution

He has a monkey but it doesn't light up. His monkey has been his security blanket for almost 2 years now. Me and my SO ask him whats wrong with him and if he is scared and he always says no. I'm going to be scheduling him a doctors appointment with his doc and see what she feels or thinks.
