Just some encouragement hopefully. When ds was about 26months old, we moved him to his own bed and room to sleep as I was due in February and knew all four of us couldn't be in the same bed. I had always done all the night time parenting, and ds always cried when dh tried to take care of him in the middle of the night too. So I was worried about how it was going to go when baby born.
Well, ds is sleeping better then he ever has
it took a few nights for him to get used to daddy getting him back to sleep, but now, if I try to get him back to sleep, he wakes up instead of going to sleep
he was even sleeping all night most nights, till he started getting his 2 year molars.
All that to say, it might go so much better then you can imagine now. I was so worried about it, and scared, but it all worked out
I'll be praying he starts sleeping for daddy
Oh, who puts him to bed? That was the first thing we changed. Dh started putting him to bed in the evening and then when ds was used to that, he started going in to get him back to sleep if ds woke up in the middle of the night.
