Psychological research shows it’s better to comfort your child. When they cry, it’s their way of seeking connection, not manipulation. Comforting them builds long-term emotional security, while letting them cry it out can increase the risk of stress-related issues later on. It’s taking a lot of effort from parents but we had the long term vision and I think it helped our kids massively. Hope it helps!🥰

At this phase lay with them until they fall asleep assuming it’s fast.. I did it for a few years and they don’t need it anymore. Just a phase better to comfort her through it

Listen not trying in anyway to make you feel guilty. My daughter sadly passed away at 2 1/2, and you will miss those toddler hugs and kisses. Lay with her and read a book! And get in all the cuddles you can get, tomorrow is not promised.

You’re the parent. You do what YOU *feel* is right. This is a pure phase. Honestly, I’d choose to go in at this age. You won’t ever regret giving love to your child. You don’t create “bad habits” by showing your child attention. But make sure your tank is full. If you need the time to collect yourself, take it. My child is almost 10. We sleep trained at 6 months bc she couldn’t sleep well. We still went thru this phase at this age. We let her whine/cry but lights are still out. I just sit with her thru her storm. ❤

I tell her I’m going to bed so then she thinks we’re all going to bed!

We would wait 5 minutes and go in and tell ours that she was okay and that we won’t be back. And it was tough for a few nights but eventually our little one learned that crying won’t always get her what she wants. Teach her about the routine and tell her how it will be in the future. Be consistent: She’ll learn, it’s just a tough season. Sending all the good vibes your way. You guys are amazing parents. ❤

Going through same thing! She sometimes will do this for up to an hour. I go back in and then she acts totally normal and says she wants to go to sleep, so I know she’s fine. I just tell her that she’s safe in her crib and it’s time to get some rest so she’s ready for [insert fun things for the next day]. I tell her I love her and leave and I don’t go back in.

Talking through the monitor. Only thing that worked because going back in makes them more upset!

Comfort her!! as much as she needs and she’ll eventually grow out of it. I’ll forever miss the days they don’t yell for me 🩷 maybe try laying with her till she falls asleep!

I’ve talked to my 2.5 yo about what he’s gonna dream about (all his favorite things) and so he gets a little excited to fall asleep.

go in, give them a hug in their crib and lay them down then walk out. set a timer for 5 minutes and go back in if they are still losing it. keep repeating until they fall asleep. if crying escalates to like the level 2 crying, take out and comfort, otherwise keep laying back down.

It’s so hard when they’re SO aware. Ours started this around the same age and now we hold his hand in the dark for about 3 minutes and then I leave. It’s been a few months but he is awake when we leave but the hand holding helps him get comfortable and feel safe!

It’s a re-sleep training phase. First time you go in say “it’s bed time honey, goodnight *hugs and kisses*” lay them back down, cover them and leave. Second time wait 10-15 minutes, go in put them back down cover them and only say “goodnight” leave and close the door. Third time wait 10-15 minutes of crying, go in and don’t say a thing just put them down in bed cover them and leave. Kept repeating this for a week and they were re-sleep trained.

We would do “pop ins” every few minutes… you can determine the time. We started with 2 minutes and worked our way up to 10 minutes. Walk in, say something like, “I love you, you’re safe” and then walk back out calmly. Any big reaction (positive or negative) may make it worse. We would never leave our child crying for more than 10 minutes without a “pop in”… I feel like it helped the child know that they weren’t abandoned 😭 but that it is really bedtime. It’s a phase for sure!

The best thing my pediatrician told us was we set a firm bed time, set a bed time routine that you stick to, read a book, sing a song, etc whatever it is. Then you say goodnight, close the door, and DO NOT go back in until morning. It took my toddler 2 nights before she took to it and now she’s 5 years old and the BEST sleeper

Ferber method can still apply. Only this time you can communicate (somewhat) with them about it. “I’ll come check on you in 5min”. Keep increasing the time you go check on them by 5 min. They will get too tired while waiting, but their brain knows you’re coming back.

Also, all these people recommending laying with her. It’s YOUR choice. What do you want from bedtime? You have more than one child and I’m going to gently remind you 1 year quickly turns to 3. We’ve been laying with our now 5yo for 2 years now and I hate it. We have another child that will never get the attention he gets and that kills me. Boundaries. I will never miss bedtime battles.

Honestly brotha just lay with her until she falls asleep. That age is too old for the sleep training window. Cut out the naps and she will go down quick!

I use a slightly deeper voice on the baby monitor and say, “it’s bedtime. Stop yelling and lay down.” My son immediately drops to his bed. I call it the voice of God effect. 🤷🏼♀

Our 2.5 year old does this sometimes too. My wife will go lay with him the first time, the next time she has to go in she will just kneel by his bed. 3rd and last time she will stay in the doorway and let him know this is the last time and she will see him in the morning.
