Oh Liz I really feel for you We have been having sleep issues with Joshua for the last 3 months - he too has decided that mummy and daddy are needed at 4.30am every morning, and that 5am is wake up, get up everyone time. I've been trying so hard to be strong and just leave him, but his plaintive little cries of "mumeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" get me every time Cold turkey is beginning tonight.]]> Thu, 16 Aug 2007 13:26:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=197819&title=support-please#197819 <![CDATA[support please!! : tried those at mums and the same...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=193452&title=support-please#193452 Author: lizzle

tried those at mums and the same thing - maybe it's the restrictiveness he doesn't like rather than the wetness. no idea.

both kids in our bed last night. taine had a massive fever and Jake wet the bed, sigh.]]> Wed, 08 Aug 2007 07:53:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=193452&title=support-please#193452 <![CDATA[support please!! : Yay for getting Taine sorted,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=193338&title=support-please#193338 Author: mummy_becks

me too aimee! am gutted! next time you are over though - yell out.

Taine has had three nights in his bed alone! yah! Actually can't take the credit as lew sat with him, patted his back and - the key ingrediant it seems - left a sippy bottle of water there for him. it seems he was gettting thirsty!

one bad thing - Jake has decided that he doesn';t like to sleep in wet nappies - so takes them off - around 3am - then gets back, goes to sleep, wets bed and hopes in with us freezing cold! lucki.y he doesn't kick. But honestly, is there anything cuter than a child cuddled up asleep in your arms (before your arms go to sleep or the said child starts kicking or flailing about)]]> Tue, 07 Aug 2007 20:59:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=193293&title=support-please#193293 <![CDATA[support please!! : Stay strong Liz!

We have this with Josiah, Liz. He comes in and hops into bed with Daddy (ie, on Nat's side of the bed!) at about 3am every night. Nat is exhausted because of Josiah waking him, and it takes about 30 minutes every time to get him to go back to sleep in his own bed. Xavier is still not sleeping through the night so we're a couple of tired parents by morning. A week or so after we move we are going to start teaching both boys to sleep through and stay put.]]> Tue, 07 Aug 2007 08:43:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=192749&title=support-please#192749 <![CDATA[support please!! : We get tat every now and then...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=192723&title=support-please#192723 Author: MyMinis

Ella gets into bed at some stage in the night.. now she's night time TT'd she often wakes up to go to the toilet, and she needs me to help.

Stay strong Liz, he's probably had enough nights of settling co-sleeping and will be fine in his own bed! You'll definitely want to beat this habit before long. My girls have a rule that the door stays partly open but if they get out (when it's still dark), then when they are put back to bed it's with the door shut. I can hear them if they cry in the night, like if something is wrong, so that's no prob. But they don't room share (that totally didn't work out for us!) so that might seem to the 'good' one that he is being punished for the 'bad' boy's behaviour! ]]> Sat, 04 Aug 2007 12:46:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=191555&title=support-please#191555 <![CDATA[support please!! : lizzle wrote:well, ah hem,Lew...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=191533&title=support-please#191533 Author: 11111

I agree with Nikki, we had this same problem with Abby I now get up the second I hear her stirring and rub her back, let her know I am still here and it seems to work. She now only wakes up every now and then instead of two to three times a night in which she would always end up in our bed.

Now she only ends up in our bed maybe once every three weeks or so.

Perservere Liz. And Taine will be fine... he knows ya love him.
Just make sure if you do hear him, that you get out of bed and go to him before he climbs into you. Trust me, so much easier to train them that way... otherwise they get mixed messages and just keep on climbing in!]]> Sat, 04 Aug 2007 08:40:07 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=191423&title=support-please#191423 <![CDATA[support please!! : well, ah hem,Lew came to bed at...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=191416&title=support-please#191416 Author: lizzle

It can be doe Lizzle! We had to retrain Ella from coming in with us when she woke in the night.
It was hard to keep it up at first, as in the wee small hours it was very tempting just to tuck her in with us and go back to sleep, rather than spend time resettling her.
She got the hang of it pretty quick though, 3 crap nights and then she was sleeping all night in her own bed.
Hope it goes well for you!]]> Fri, 03 Aug 2007 22:21:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=191377&title=support-please#191377 <![CDATA[support please!! : taine just woke up and I went...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=191340&title=support-please#191340 Author: lizzle

good luck Lizzle.

But personally, I'd be the same as you! If the child has gone through a lot of chages recently they need Mum (and Dad) for reassurance.
And I've been reading Toddler Taming recently and he says the same thing. But if he's upsetting Jake with his "nocturnal wanderings" (I love the way Christoper Greene writes!) then perhaps split them up if possible for a couple of nights until you've got Taine to stay in his own bed then put them back together when everything has calmed down.

All the best with tonight ]]> Fri, 03 Aug 2007 21:30:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=191333&title=support-please#191333 <![CDATA[support please!! : lewis was away for a week, and...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=191300&title=support-please#191300 Author: lizzle

lewis was away for a week, and then we moved, and taine went into a big boy bed. lots of stuff - Taine is finally going to sleep in his bed, without crawling in with jake - and then pushing him out. BUT he keeps waking up and getting into bed with us- and by the way, "getting into bed" means i go and get him. but he grins so much as he snuggles down. so cute! anyway, lewis told me today that if Taine continues to sleep in our bed, he'll sleep on the couch cause he can't sleep - kinda fair enough as Taine kicks...a lot. so it's operation "sleep in your own bed buddy" - but he's had so many changes recently I feel so meaaaaaannnnn.   and he is really warm. can you tell i don't wanna do this? makes it hard as he sleeps with jake and i don't ewant him to cry and wake up jake as well.

shall try tonight though....well will try....no there is not try, there is do or do not......

will update tomorrow.]]> Fri, 03 Aug 2007 21:00:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9646&PID=191300&title=support-please#191300
