walking zombie?

Question

i stay at home with the kiddos during the day then go to school full-time at night. i don't usually get to be until around 0100 and 0200. i get up around 0730. well, sometime inbetween all that my daughter gets up, everynight, and crawls in my bed. i usually get woke up with a foot in the face. so i pick her up and put her in her bed. sometimes she comes back, sometimes she doesn't. this has been going on for WEEKS. i don't get enough sleep as it is and getting up in the middle of the night to take care of all this is really getting to me. i'm exhausted. any suggestions on how i can help/make her stop doing this?

Answer 1

Put a little bed/mattress/sleeping bed on the floor of your room and tell her this is her bed for when she needs mommy. But she has to come into your room very quietly and sleep there and she can't wake mommy up or else mommy will be a grouch.

This way if she needs you she doesn't feel like you aren't there BUT it may take some of the fun out of sneaking in your room so she may start staying in her room. Either way you get some more sleep.

Answer 2

I'm going to tell you a story. When I was little I used to climb out of my crib when I was scared and go to see my mom in her bed.

I remember this because it was traumatising.

So one night I was really scared because I though this monster was in my room. I got out of my crib ( I was a very skilled child) and I ran to my moms room. When I tried to open the door it wouldn't open. My mom had locked the door!!!!!

At that moment in time I didn't even think that my mom would lock the door one me so I jumped to the conclusion that the monster was in my moms room and she was hurting her. I started banging on the door and crying and eventually my mom came to open it. She was so angry at me that she told me to "GO BACK TO BED!!!"

I did so...and I never slept in her bed again!

:(
