Any Mommy Advice PLEASE!?
My son is 2 and a half years old. We have be laying down next to him til he fell asleep and then sneaking out of the room. ( I really don't want to hear opinion on my parenting skills so just shut it if you have nothing nice to read aloud, I have a question)
And about 1,2 or 3 in the morning he is yell for daddy and my husband wakes up and goes and lays next to him within bed.
Well I want this to stop! I want him to sleep on his own like a big boy.
And I need some advice on how you get your child to stay in his own bed and fall asleep alone with out us have to be next to him.
And how to get him to stop yelling for daddy within the middle of the night?
Thank you!!

Hmmmm welll you must be gentle and kind don't shriek and try not to get frusterated with him
just talk to him make him consistency like he is a big boy.. now my baby girl she is similar to 3 1/2 she will be tellling me " I'm going to sleep in the living and watch Sponge bob" Lol..make him discern like he is a big boy
I agree with teri .. same problem with me too except mine is 11 months ripened.
but this is what i plan on doing , theres this lady named Kim from my church , i went to her house and she have a 12 month old girl . and whenever they see that shes getting tired and cranky , they put her in her crib and close the door and let her crash down to sleep on her own. And they are NOT far away from the door they stay in the room right by the door. And the girl has gotten so used to it that she doesn't even cry just go to sleep.
i won't lie it'll break me heart doing that to my lil girl (im over dramatic i know LOL :D ) but i have to do it before shes 15 years feeble crawling in bed with me. lol.
good luck hun. and don't listen to anyone who say anything bad about your question. some relatives on here really outa get off babyfreefaq.com and take trouble of they're own kids for once anyways (not ALL of them but you get my point)
i'm interested... sounds like my house... Logan is 17 months and this is our routine, so i hope you find good advice that i can steal.
Answers: Hi,
This is a topic I saw on Nanny 911. Jo Frost (the nanny) has a sleep seperation technique and ways to get toddlers to stay in bed. I included the join and highly recommend it. From watching the show it takes a lot of courage and commitment. It involves placing the child contained by bed NUMEROUS times until they just stay there and go to bed. Most of the kids cry and shout...but within a few days they are sleeping alone...which is better for everyone to get a good night rest.. :) Good Luck to you. I hope you find something that works
welcome to my house. lol. Not a big deal. What we did is not get hold of in the bed with her. Instead, get a small stool.( we had toddler chairs already that were sturdy enough to hold us) And instead of getting surrounded by bed, or laying next to her we would sit in the stool. And rub her back, or talk to her, or sing. Whatever worked on any particular hours of darkness. Then get up and go back to our bed. It take some time to change habits. Especially sleeping or nite time habits. you will acquire there.
ANd I do agree with some nights letting them self soothe. Usually ours will fuss for rather while, but if you just listen and wait it out then they will jump back to sleep on their own.
My daughter will still yell for daddy though. Notice I say daddy not mommy? Cause mommy know better . And I will tell her to get her butt back to bed. Daddy otherwise is a sucker. THis is his baby princess and she has him well trained. lol.
We move about back and forth a lot on how to deal next to things like this. lol. Source(s): Mom of three.
Put him in his bed and walk away! When he get up put him back and say it's bed time. If you do this over and over he will get it.It might help yourself to a few days or a week but you can do it! That is a learned behavior that will not change if you don't stop it. You wouldn't like me to whip your pillow after you fall asleep but if you never had one you wouldn't look for it, right? If he falls asleep alone he won't look for dad in the first place. Good luck!
I would suggest making it fun for him. I would go out with him and kind it a family day. Go to the store and let him pick out a spanking new THEME for his big boy room! Tell him once you get it all home and up he has to start sleeping within there. We did this with my son. We let him pick the paint, curtains, bedding (Thomas the Tank), trash can, etc. He loved it and have been in there ever since. HE give me a hard times a few times but I reminded him what we did for his big boy room and he promised.
My boys have both slept through from pretty much morning one and I've never had this problem. But if my son was to get into this routine, I guess I'd probably stop lying with him to get him to sleep, maybe buy him a toy and vote if he sleeps all night through like a big boy, he will attain this toy. Or start a sticker chart, if he gets 5 out of 7 stickers a week for not shouting Daddy, he gets a new toy coup¨¦ or something? and then gradually build it up til its 7 nights out of 7 and once he's surrounded by that routine, find something else that your son could improve on like tidying up after himself or eating adjectives his tea and keep the chart going xx
I FEEL for you and your husband! We have this with 2 of ours!
Here is my advice...and it's worked for everyone I've suggested it for!
During the night, don't be paid a habit of running right in!
Let your baby revise to sooth back to sleep on it's own. If it continues for more than 20 minutes, go check for too hot, etc. Try not to turn on lights, etc. The less fuss you create, the less a big deal this will be.
Maybe avoid those big, killer, PUPPY EYES! They're the downfall of plentiful! LOL!
After putting him down, hum a little as you walk away. "Good night, mommy/daddy loves you!"
Check support every 5-10. Just say, I'm here, you're okay. You're such a BIG BOY!
He may get more than fussy before the first dark is over. Sometimes it is pretty easy.
The idea is that your he will learn you ARE in that, you love him, but that you are NOT going to lay down with him.
It may take a couple of nights for your son to sooth himself to sleep.
Be strong! It's never jammy, but it's so much better to do NOW!
This is a power play...one YOU must win.
Good luck... Source(s): Mom of 5, gramma to 2 under a year, another on the way! Aunt to WELL OVER 30 nieces & nephews. Former daycare provider
