All humans wake in the night but kiddos who have someone help them relax at bedtime may want those conditions again in the middle of the night. Understand all humans wake in the night. Sleep is a learned habit, continually helping your baby to fall asleep means you have to do so in night.
Dr. Jodi Mindell's research showed that the more parents intervened at bedtime, the more babies woke up in the night. - Навчання та стиль
My son is 3, bedtime is a nigthmare for everyone he will literally figth you just to avoid sleeping is like in his brain sleeping is the worst thing ever.
Same except it’s my daughter, it’s like the end of the world to them.
Same here to my 2 year daughter. Sometimes I feel to cry loudly because I want to take of a 4 month baby also
Have him checked for any neuro conditions including for example ADHD
My 2 year old wakes up around 1am and can't sleep back until 8am or 6am. This happens for 3 weeks now. 😔 We follow a good routine before going to sleep, but when she wakes up she climbed up her bed and goes to our bed.
Our 2 and half year old daughter has never liked a nap, she will fight it to the very end. The only way she will nap is if we drive her round in the car long enough for her to fall asleep. That being said on a night time she is way over tired and some night she will cry and scream until 3am then eventually go. Me and my wife both have work the next morning and we are at breaking point. We have always tried good bed time routine bath time brush teeth story but lately its just not cutting it anymore.
So sorry to hear you are having such a hard time. Your whole family must be very tired. The car works because she's strapped in, very clear boundaries and the motion is soothing. Start by downloading my timing chart to check your bed timing www.helpingbabiessleep.com/download.
We did recently get him to stop sucking his thumb and I think it was what comforted him to fall asleep… he’s always been a great sleeper yes sometimes his naps were short or nonexistent but this is so bad…
When you took the thumb away, did you offer some more comfort in another manner such as your presence to help ease the transition? That can be helpful.
Super soft blanket or weighted soft blanket may help
My son is extra crazy 🤪
He spins and somehow manages to crawl in his sleep 😴
What if your 2 year old hasn't slept through the night one time since birth? Mom's exhausted and really needs him to start sleeping
In most cases this is about timing of sleep, how baby falls asleep and then how Mom is responding when baby does wake up. Sleep is a learned habit and timing sets them up for success. If still in a crib the book will help!
Omggg finally someone who understands my pain. My daughter is a 27 week preemie and she has NEVER,not a single day of her 2 year old life has slept through a single night. I'm tired. My husband is tired. I don't know what to do. I'm trying so hard not to give her melatonin.
@@mrsjrenae4738 I'm so sorry you are struggling like this. I do have an online class for this age group to help her fall asleep on her own and sleep through the night in her crib or bed. amzn.to/45KABzp
And if she's in a bed, my online class goes over moving to a bed and sleeping all night long independently there. www.helpingtoddlerssleep.com
Its seems you state all the things they do but offer no solutions.
I agree
Literally
The bell was so distracting!
My son is 15 months. Hasn't slept through the night his whole life so far. Doesn't ever want to go to sleep. And it's so hard to make him go to bed mostly all the time.
For the past few weeks my 3 yr old is sleeping 4, 5 or 6 a.m in the morning. I dunno how to fix it. Both me n my husband are struggling. Worse thing is people scare us with words like he'll be sick, he'll be this n that (Don't wanna even mention it). His father is a positive person who believes it will be okay. But as a mother, I can't throw those negative words. What if my child actually gets sick? Please help me!!
If it's too early I give my toddler her leap pad and a snack like a cheese stick or granola bar. Atleast she's learning and happy. Sometimes she'll fall back asleep and other times she's ready to go outside. The leap pad and snack has been a life saver though. While momma gets 30mins-1hr more rest. And she's in my bed with me whole time. Call me lazy but I'm a single mom trying to hang on😅
Also forgot when she does wake up early I ask if she needs to go potty 1st and she usually does
My son who’s 2 now, has always slept through the night since 3.5 months old, but now he crawls into bed with me every night between 4-6 am. Idk if it’s his teeth bothering him, because when he comes into my bed, he’s not crying or acting like he’s in pain, he just comes into my bed and falls asleep. Is that normal?
There are many two year olds who would like to sleep with their parents. Age two is a time of testing boundaries and trying new things. You just have to decide if the at works for youZ
Sounds normal
very normal it could be your body frequency they just want to be near you. sometimes my 2 year old forces her way into my lap and.my other kids got in bed with me til 4 and 8off and on I slept off and on with my granny or grandpa til I was 10 so it depends on the love
My one year old won’t sleep without breastfeeding to sleep and looks for me to comfort in the middle of the night and then clutches on to me. She slept on her own 7-10 months old, she was a horrible sleeper 1-7 months and 10+ months now. I don’t know what to do.
WE work with parents like you all the time!! We have a step by step approach in our book. She's reliant on you to soothe her to sleep and she expects/associates breastfeeding to help her fall and return to sleep. You can absolutely work on gently changing her expectations but she will not like it. www.amzn.com/B08WQ2J8MZ
@@HelpingBabiesSleep Just ordered this book. Praying it works
Im really getting exhausted. My 15 months daughter is always fighting her sleep for months. She usually sleeps by 8 or 9pm but now lately 11pm but sleep throughout at night. The worse part while sleeping she moves too much and i really struggle to transition to her own bed
So sorry to hear about how tired you are and how tired she must be too! In general she needs 11 hours of overnight sleep to be rested. Her bedtime is too late. We have a step by step approach to help you in our book on Amazon. www.amzn.com/B08WQ2J8MZ
My daughter has had a terrible sleep schedule since birth she's now 4 and still got me out driving around at 3-4am. She never really napped. Please someone help😫.
Same like mine she is 2 now
Hello, I can’t book times with you on the website. It seems June and July are booked. My wife and I are desperate with our toddler and we have a second baby coming soon. Need help. Thank you.
Sorry about that! Vacation until July 8th. Opened a few spots up for that week!
No I eye contact with the blogger. It is difficult to watch.
Just listen
My son is 4 1/2 but needs sleep or else he is mean and grumpy… is this normal at this age?
Sounds about right yes. Lack of sleep = mean and grumpy... at most ages.
My daughter sleeps for 2 hours at daycare every day and doesn't go to sleep till 10 at night or later 😢 not sure how to handle weekdays should I ask the teachers to keep her awake? 😬
Yes stop napping. My 2 yr old was taking 2 hours, I stopped her napping and while not a cure, it's drastically reduced getting to sleep
My daughter stopped napping at 2, I gave up on naps because she would sleep at night. she is almost 4 now and has been up every night for weeks now and I just don't know what to do, sometimes she will go back to sleep right after a drink or something like that and other nights we're up for 2-4hrs it's really making us both grumpy 😢 any suggestions?
Also still refuses to nap even though we're up half the night so we are both just so tired 😴
You're on the right track to skipping the nap but she might need some timing help with her bedtime. Start with this free resource www.helpingbabiessleep.com/download for sleep timing. And then if that doesn't resolve everything we do have a 2 to 4 year old online class that gives you strategies to help.
@@HelpingBabiesSleep thank you!
My daughter is 20 months old
She is very active during the day
She wakes up suddenly at 2am in night cries a alot and then sleep after an hour or two
Why is this happening??
It's hard to say with little info, but in general, the most common cause of night wakings at this age is staying awake too long before bedtime. Meaning: bedtime is too late. She needs to be asleep ~ 4 hours from waking from her nap.
I am one of this moms who’s thinks she has such a unique situation you have never dealt with 😂.
Son was born with extreme torticollis and my doula and I suspect he has a submucous cleft palate but I can’t seem to get a doctor to look into it more thoroughly yet.
He was eventually diagnosed with oral phase dysphagia.
I became pregnant again around 7 months of his life and immediately stopped producing milk. He had been nursing on me ALL night before. The second I would move he would immediately reattach.
Sadly, all of a sudden he was not getting his milk from mom and despite his devoted effort into weight loss and dry diapers I had to finally force syringe feed him formula until he could figure out how to nurse on a bottle (took a month to get him on a bottle as he couldn’t figure out how to function his tongue).
I was then placing him in a crib…
All that to say he has never slept through the night.
He is now 2. Meanwhile his younger brother has been sleeping through the night since 2 weeks.
Any new method I try it only works for a couple days and then he is back to waking up in the middle of the night screaming.
He will screaming for hours if I leave him alone to it. (I only figured this out on nights where I accidentally silenced the monitor).
I am at my wits end.
I haven’t been able to benefit with sleep with my youngest sleeping through the night, seeing as how my now toddler still will not sleep through the night
I'm so sorry you're having such a journey. This is an extreme situation and I don't feel comfortable commenting on your situation without knowing more of your history. There's many things going on here, I would speak to your pediatrician about all of this and possible ask for a referral for a developmental pediatrician.
My 2 year old doesnt nap his night sleeping is so bad but if we let him nap he doesnt fall asleep till 11 at night my bed time is 9
