Problems with Bedtime

My daughter Morgan is two and a half and never goes to sleep without screaming for at the least thirty minutes to the most and hour. I have no idea what to do to make this easier for me and her??? I have tried staying in the room with her to calm her down and she ends up kicking me and screaming more. I have also tried making her stay in her room by herself and cry herself to sleep but that is breaking my heart... i keep her on a pretty strict routine i pick her up from school and we come home eat, take a bath, play together, read, and...

Baby Wont Stay Asleep

My daughter is 3 months old. She's always been a good sleeper when it comes to bed time, however the past two nights, it seems like ten minutes after I lay her down, she's up screaming crying. I go in and pick her up and rock her and she falls back asleep. I walk back out to the living and a few minutes later I hear her again on the baby monitor. It gets pretty stressful because I'm already so tired since she does NOT sleep good at all during the day so I'm pretty much ready for bed shortly after her but can't go to bed until she is really...

Looking for Suggestions for Girl's Bedding That Isn't TOO Girly

We are about to get a new twin bed for our daughter (white) and I have been looking for bedding. Pink is okay, although it would be nice to have a variety of colors. My sons have some great "space" bedding made by Olive You and it is great. Olive You doesn't seem to have any great girl designs that I could find. Her current bedding for her crib (which we turned into a makeshift toddler bed) is ladybug. I thought maybe bugs or butterflies? I really don't want to do princesses (although of course she loves them.) I would like something that...

My 4 Year Old Little Girl Having Nightmares and WILL Not Sleep in Her Own Bed...

Like I said I have a 4 year old little girl and she says she has nightmares at least 3 to 4 times a week and we have tried all kinds of things like having water in a spray bottle and squirting it ALL around her room and telling her that is the monster and nightmare spray to make it go away.. It didn't help.. We give her a night light, she still cries waking up.. As well, staying with her until she falls asleep, that doesn't work she will wake up screaming if she is alone.. She doesn't even like to stay inside our house if we are outside.....

Miss No Naps

Hello, My almost three year old has decided she doesn't want to take naps anymore. Every afternoon I read her a story, tuck her into her bed with her music on, and then the battle begins. We spend the next hour or so with her coming out of her room saying she is not tired or that she doesn't want to take a nap and then me dragging her back to her room and tucking her in again, and again, and again... By the time she actually falls asleep, if she falls asleep, it’s pretty late in the day to be sleeping and then I have a hard time...

Advice on Nap Schedule and Tantrums

My son sleeps through the night, asleep by 9 p.m. and awake at 7 a.m. He generally takes a 45 minute morning nap at about 9 a.m. After that we do not have a schedule. I can not get him to take more than a 1/2 hour nap in the afternoon even though he gets very crabby and tired. Another problem we have is...we rock our son to sleep. I know they say not to but he was 7 weeks early and had horrible acid reflux. Out doctor just said to do what ever we had to do in order to get him to sleep. We also had to hold him a lot. Well, of course...

Need Help with Dealing with Anxiety

I have a 10 1/2 month old beautiful daughter who I love with all my heart, but it seems like every time she goes to sleep I worry that she is gonna die of sids. I know she is out of the highest danger for it, she is also very healthy. But I continue to worry about her. I have a baby monitor that goes under the mattress and monitors her breathing and sets off an alarm if 15 seconds go by with no breathing or movement, but once again I still worry. I'm a christian woman who prays about it and that helps alot but I just can't seem to conquer...

The Princess and the Frog and My 5 Year Old

I was hoping to take my daughter to see "The Princess and the Frog" for her 5th birthday next week. Has anyone seen it? It seems as if it may be too scary for a 5 year old. My daughter loves anything princess, she also enjoys cooking, so I think the movie would be something she would really like. However, the voodoo magic sequences seem as if the could be scary depending on their intensity. My daughter has seen Up, the Tale of Desperoux, Ice Age 3 and Night at the Museum in the theater. I would like to hear from any moms who have taken...

Toddler "Princess" Reactions

My two year old daughter has pretty strong reactions to getting "yucky" while eating. If she gets yogurt on her finger, she can't eat another bite until it's cleaned off. Same thing for mayo from a sandwich or if some of her cereal drops on her chair in front of her. She just wines and sticks her hand out at me until I clean it up. I've been giving the cue "yucky" to her, and telling her to ask for a napkin to "clean up", but it all seems a bit "princess"y to me. I expect her to get messy when she eats. This melt down in the face of food...
