I am new too and so in need of help! I feel your pain, but at least your child will sleep in your bed with you. Mine has been a pretty good sleeper up to about 3 weeks ago, she started not wanting to go to bed and screaming so much she made herself sick, she jumps and cries so much that you would think she would cry herself to sleep but to no avail she doesn’t. I have tried it all, letting her cry, moving her to a big girl bed, moving her to our bed, but after 30 minutes of being quiet and lying down she starts all over again. She always wants to watch tv and never sleep, and she is not wanting to nap during the daytime either, I am at my wits end and so tired, and 17 weeks pregnant. I am so desperate, any help would be tremendously appreciated!! Help!
Sincerely,
A desperate 2 1/2 year old mom!

* Sometime between your baby’s first birthday and when she turns 18 months old, she will probably be ready to take one long afternoon nap rather than two shorter naps each day.
*The transition can be a bit tricky since she is accustomed to sleeping in the morning, so expect a crabby baby in the late morning for the first week or so after you make the transition
*If you find that your baby is not sleeping well at night, increase, rather than decrease, her afternoon nap time. Many parents mistakenly assume that if a baby cannot sleep at night, it means that they are sleeping too much during the day.
*Most often, however, the opposite is true. Overtired babies have a lot of trouble falling asleep and staying asleep, so be sure that your toddler is getting a solid afternoon snooze.

My 7 year old daughter is ever energetic till today. She sleeps like 1am yes not typo error now that she’s in Primary 1 afternoon class, it’s still not too bad, I don’t know what will happen to her if her school is in the morning. Last time when she had to attend kindergarten she would be blur in the morning and dream in the class but she won’t feel sleepy till 3pm+ until my family persuade her to sleep….

I don’t know why my daughter is like that even when she was a few weeks old, she doesn’t sleep in the afternoon.

I fully understand how you feel and your worry. Did you give your child drink milo? As it’s really energizing, milk is okay but not chocolate. Since your child is still young, try massage them and make sure the room is really dim and quiet, the pyjamas is 100% cotton etc, hope this helps them relax and will sleep earlier.

Best wishes,

А почему бы не подойти к этому вопросу с другой стороны и не говорить не понимая!?

I have been reading a lot on here and have picked up some useful info. One thing I have found which works really well for a good nights sleep, feeling more relaxed and focused is binaural beats. As strange as they may sound (excuse the pun) they are a very powerful method of relaxation.
