" My Preschooler Will Not Sleep in Her bed..HELP!"

My daughter will not sleep in her bed. Every night she comes into my room and sleeps in my bed! I have decorated her room to the design & decor she chose. I even got her a new bed and that still did not work! I have tried asking her what is wrong why she won't sleep in her bed and her answer is always "because I just can't". I have recently tried to use the bedtime routine chart with stickers and all and she just keeps waking up at 3am and comes into my bed and sleeps!!!! HELP!!!! What am I doing wrong? What else can I try?

Help with a 20 Month Old Sleeping in Her Own Big Bed

Hi there, I have a 20 month old daughter who has always slept very well. She has been sleeping in her own room, in her own crib since she was 3 months old with no problem and sleeping through the entire night. Just recently she has learned to climb out of her crib and to open doors. Of course we worried she would hurt herself climbing out of the crib so we transferred her into her own big bed and placed safety things on the doors so she can't open all the doors. To get to the point she now will not go to sleep in her bed unless I lie...

Naps and Transition from Swaddles for 4 Month Olds

Our 4 month old twins are doing great at sleeping, often through the night (7:30 to 7 or so), occasionally getting up once (at 3 or 4 am). They've been doing this for several weeks. But now they're getting up a bit more, because they are breaking out of their swaddles. We use the Kiddopotamus with velcro. They're getting too big for the size small, but the larges we bought seem too big (they also break out). Yet without the swaddles, I don't think they'll make it more than a couple hours ... I know we need to transition, likely from...

PLEASE Help!! 14 Month Baby and I Need to Sleep Through the Night!!

Hola dear parents! this is my first time writing on here. I need help especially from those of you who went through something similar. At this moment I'm in the bathroom and doing everything in my power not to cry. My baby is 14 months and I've been breast-feeding on demand (day and night, as you can imagine- against most people's opinion). I have no problem waking up every hour and a half but now everyone is telling me that it is really unhealthy for my baby to be waking up THIS much (usually he sleep from 8-11 (maybe 12) and then...

1 Month Old Won't Sleep on His Back

Hi moms! I'm a first time mom of a beautiful baby boy. Everythin is going pretty well except for the fact that he does not want to sleep on his back. I'm well aware of the risk factors for SIDS including sleeping on his tummy, too hot, smoke in the home, etc. The only time my 1 month old will sleep on his back is in a swaddleme but that's no good for those hot nights. Please I need some ideas from you moms on what I should do or if I shouldn't worry. I wanted to leave him on his back til he breaks out of it but his father isn't patient...
