      Hey all ya mothers!
      Ive got a two year old little man and hes very active and isn’t much of a sleeper. I’ve being trying to get him to go to bed by himself, and he was fine when he was sleeping in a cot….but now that he can climb out of it I have to be there stroking his head and stuff until he’s COMPLETELY asleep I mean for a really long time, otherwise he runs out of the bedroom and refuses to go to bed.
      I have no clue how to stop this. Nothing seems to work!
      Any advice gals?

          Hey!
          Thanks for the reply!
          I ended up just having to take away his midday sleep, so we’re in the process of completing changing his routine, because I was reading to him, and stroking his head, and talking and singing to him, but I just figured he wasn’t tired enough after having a midday sleep!

            I hope the new routine works for you.I’ve never had a problem with Sleeping with both kids.I tell skye its bedtime now and she goes to daddy and kisses him and then she climbs in her cot.

              Also a safety gate on the bedroom door can help

                    Aww, why so, hun?
                    I was sixteen when I fell pregnant, and we’re doing just fine. There’s a lot of people in that boat and we’re doing fine.
                    What makes you feel that way?
