it sounds like i could of asked this question..My daughter is the same age and was doing the same thing..This may not be the right thing to do but we tried everything, putting her back to bed when she got out, reading to her, letting her scream it out, letting her run rampid till she just fell over..But finally we just decided to put her bed in our room(like i said may not be the right thing), she sleeps like a charm now and doesn't even fight us to go to sleep now..After about another week or 2 of this were going to be switching her back to her room again to try it out..Best of luck i know exactly what your going through..

This is real a trouble in which patience will repay, despite the fact that it could put on mommy down for the primary few nights. I were going by way of a identical factor with my daughter, besides the secret's no longer giving in. By doing that you've got taught him that if he cries lengthy sufficient he's going to ultimately get what he wishes. I additionally do not consider that bribing him with toys or sweet is a well notion, then he's going to anticipate treats for doing whatever he's intended to do. What I did with Haley used to be functional. I could learn her one tale after which the lighting pass out (she does have a night time mild) I sat in her room subsequent to the mattress and he or she could scream and cry, if she talked to me I quite simply stated "Mommy loves you however it's time to fall asleep and leisure for the next day" If she sits up I lay her back off lightly, if she will get away from bed I inform her the equal factor ( regularly assertive however calm) and placed her again in mattress (lightly). It took close to 2 hours the primary night time however now we've it down pat...might be begin a bit of early at the first night time in order that you do not become in mattress at the hours of darkness like I did (5 am comes truly rapid whilst you get in mattress that past due)!

When she gets out of her bed.....pick her up and walk her straight back to bed....don't talk to her or anything.....its an attention thing.....don't give her what she wants....don't give in...don't lye down with her....and don't let her sleep in your bed.....just pick her up and take her back and leave.....do this as many times as it takes not matter how much she crys and screams......she will learn that bed time is bed time and thats that......and be consistant......same bed time every night....same routine before bed......and don't give in......the more you give in, the more problems you will have in the long run....she will learn that she just has to out last you and she gets what she wants...don't let this happen.....you are the boss not her....
Be consistant, be consistant....be consistant...

kids will try anything. You havent tried consistancy or else you wouldnt have this problem.
You're not going to some how convince her to stay in her bed. She's not going to accept that reasoning.
Instead, you need to get up and put her back in her bed EVERYTIME she gets out of it. No matter how long or loud she screams, no matter how many times she comes out and begs, no matter how many times she tries to crawl into your bed.
You pick her up, you carry her back,and you put her in bed. End of story. No talking, no asking, no begging, no warning.
Pick her up, put her back.
you wont get much sleep the first night or two, but eventually she will get into the routine of sleeping in her bed again.
Its the only way.

read her a story, leave a night lite on,leave the door open, talk to her and see if she will tell you wats wrong, lay in bed with her but get out before she is fully asleep, or she will want you stay in there all night every night, and do not allow to sleep in your bed, I made this mistake.

me and my guy fight about this mine is 4 and i love her sleeping with me and it probably isnt right but i just dont care. but for you maybe leave some music on try to find out if she is having bad dreams or some noise is waking her up.we sleep with the tv on i love my sleep button.maybe she just needs some noise.a night light of her fav characters.most important at 2 is concidency. thats where i went wrong. maybe even stop nap time or cut it shorter. try a walk before bed.warm bath and a full belly. hang in there before you know it she will be asking to sleep at her friends house.

My son was afraid he would fall out so we put the matress on the floor and it worked. It might be worth a try.

when the kid falls asleep put him/her in his/her bed and it may work. if not talk to a pediatrition or try someone elses sugestion. mabey its just a phase he/she will grow out of it just dont let the kid keep doing it or u wont ever sleep alone.

let her sleep where she wants to for a little while, and she might want her bed back. It might take a couple of weeks, but just let sleep where she wants to for now.

Whatever you do, don't invite her in your bed or allow her to sleep on the couch.
