Late bedtime, early wakings, 2 year old sleep regression & separation anxiety- this video explains 2 year old sleep problems & how to avoid them.These 2 year old sleep training tips will get your toddler sleeping through the night.
2 year old sleep problems
#1: A late/inconsistent bedtime make toddlers sleep worse. If toddler's bedtime is 9 pm or later then he'll wake up more at night or earlier in the morning. His body clock is naturally programmed for bedtime between 6:30-8:00 pm.
Your toddler's nap should fall in the middle of his day. At 2 years old, limit your toddler's nap. As he gets older he needs less day time sleep to save night sleep.
Your toddler may be fighting bedtime from normal 2 year old resistance. A great way to combat this is to have a firm ending to your bedtime routine. Let your toddler know that every night
once you sing this song or read this book then it’s a sign that the bedtime routine is over and itime for him to sleep. Put a bedtime chart on your the bedroom wall. You can't deviate from this because it's there on the wall for your toddler to see it.
#2: The 2 year sleep regression. Sleep regressions are sudden disruptions in
sleep for a child who was previous sleeping well and they coincide
with development. Signs of the 2 year sleep regression are
fighting bedtime or naps out of the blue, waking more at night, clinginess, fussiness or restlessness & nightmares. If your toddler was sleeping well before the regression hit, stick tight to your consistent sleep routines and timing. Keep your toddler sleeping in his crib all night and falling asleep on his own. Avoid taking him out of his crib and changing his sleep space like pulling him into your bed or rocking him several times at night.
#3: Separation anxiety.
If your LO is going through big changes like starting daycare, welcoming a sibling or potty training separation anxiety can increase. In times of change your LO's sleep can suffer and she may look to you for comfort or stability. Ease your 2 year old's separation anxiety by being present. Find moments in the day where you can spend quality time without any distractions. At bedtime explain to your 2 yo that you're nearby. If she gets upset about sleeping alone, sit quietly in a chair for her to fall asleep. Also offer a lovey which is any item that brings comfort to your child. Encourage your toddler to cuddle with his buddy to keep him company in the night.
#4: Nightmares are bad dreams that upset your child. They are normal and caused by overtiredness, growing imagination,
books, videos or a scary encounter from the day. You can wake your toddler up from them and explain that it's not real.
It's impossible to wake your child up from a night terror. But the good news is they don't remember them. You just have to sit next to your child and wait
it out. Night terrors are usually caused by chronic over tiredness, sickness, stress, anxiety or jet lag. Make sure your toddler
feels safe in his bedroom. Do an inventory of books and videos he watches. During the day when your toddler is awake and happy have a simple discussion and ask him if anything's bothering him, if he's worried or if anything's scaring him.
#5: Coming into parents bed at night. The easiest way to prevent your 2 year old from coming into your bed at night is to keep him in the crib. You want your toddler in the crib as long as possible until age 3 or 4. Wait until he is repeatedly crawling out of the crib and this becomes a safety risk.
#6: Snoring. If your toddler occasionally snores don't worry. If your toddler is regularly snoring at night and seems tired during the day then it could be something bigger. In that case speak to your doctor about it.
Constant night wakings are exhausting. Your 2 yo can sleep 11-12 hours straight every night without waking up. If your toddler's sleep problems or night wakings are recent then it's probably due to 1 of the sleep problems we just discussed. Following my advice for several days will get your 2 yo sleep back on track. But if your 2 yo has never consistently slept well, don't worry! It's never too late to teach your toddler to sleep well at night and during the day.

[@AmricanEagl]

11-12 hours of sleep every night?!! My 2 year old and 3 year old toddlers barely sleep 6-7 hours every night. And they spend the day winning, fighting and crying because they are always tired from not sleeping enough at night. I just don’t know how to make them sleep more 😤

That was helpful- thank you. My 2.5 year old learned how to hop out of crib and it’s been a nightmare since then… once she discovered that running around was an option at night. We can’t get her to go to bed…. She acts like someone is torturing her when we try to get her to lay down… it’s been really tough

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

Hi, and thanks for your comment! When kids transition out of the crib before age 3 it can cause sleep disruptions. They lack the impulse control to stay in their bed. It can definitely be frustrating, but she can definitely learn how to sleep independently in a big bed. Here is a link to our Big Kid program which covers all of this in so much detail: www.babysleepmadesimple.com/big-kid-sleep-training Kind regards, Ingrid, BSMS Support Team

We have 2 year old and a 4 month old. Our 2 year old was an amazing sleeper but last few months not so great! Sounds like after watching this that it may be sleep regression (which she never had before).We have taken her cot barrier down, different night routines, different times to go to bed etc and no I’ve started a chart. She just won’t sleep without us in the room somehow. She now gets up every few hours to check and comes to our bed now. We are exhausted!

[@mikecouples2552]

Hello, thanks for all the help you post it’s helped me out in the past. I have a 2.5 year old that has always been a fantastic sleeper. Just recently….two nights ago in fact he woke up in the middle of the night Hysterical and wouldn’t go back to sleep, he seemed absolutely terrified ( which I initially put down to too much chocolate and sugar on that day as his little sister had a big birthday party. I must add he doesn’t have that sort of food at all usually ) and now he will not go to sleep at all unless you are in the room with him which is making me think he had a nightmare. When he does go sleep he wakes up in the middle of the night running out if I room hysterically crying. Also I must add he’s been potty training for 6 weeks now and that’s going well. Now I know you said it’s fine to do this for a few days but I’m concerned that he will get used to this behaviour and that’s not ideal. Could you suggest anything for me to try because the hysterical crying is Torturous to hear I’m hoping some other poor soul has been through this same situation and you could advise me and my wife on what to do? Thanks in advance.

i have put him on a regular huge bed since he was a year old. he was feeling very bad in the crib and didn't sleep in it, also he's big and loves large spaces. when i put him on a huge bed, i started the night laying next to him till he falls asleep, then i would leave. now he's almost 2 but laying next to him is just adding 2 hours of nightmare to my life -_- he's crawling, trying to get down the bed, moving the pillows, standing up, playing with blinds, kicking here and there, i have a few broken bones - it's a joke but bruises i have. so today was my final drop-of-patience day. my husband's only response is "let's take him for a car ride" - i do it only when im hopeless. today i didnt do it. will try to put him to sleep earlier than 10pm :/ will take the first advice. hope it works. because he's always been a very quiet and ideal baby starting from pregnancy, and i hate myself that i get angry with him when he's going through a hard phase.

Hi there Nune. Thank you for your message. Please don't hate yourself. You're a great mom and you're doing the best for your LO. It's true that sometimes in our effort to make things easier, we make it worse, but that's not because we're bad parents. Since your LO is almost to you can communicate with him and let him know what you expect.

Hello Klaudia, I am attaching our 2 year old sleep guide for helpful tips! It sounds like your LO just needs to learn how to fall asleep independently without you or any other sleep associations. Once she learns this skill, she will be able to put herself to sleep again on her own in the middle of the night. If your LO is still in a crib, definitely check out our 21 Days to Peace and Quiet sleep program. We can walk you through this step by step!

Let her cry it out? She was asleep by 8.20pm and up screaming at 10pm. I tried settling her again in her crib but no chance. It’s like she is possessed.

Toddlers are busy little bees and it can be so exhausting when they are battling bedtime or daytime naps! I have two children of my own, so I understand! The great news is that your child is the perfect age to learn how to fall asleep independently and sleep peacefully all night long (in his/her own sleep space)! When your LO learns how to fall asleep independently at bedtime, then he/she can resettle in the middle of the night. Bring on a rested child and a Netflix popcorn night for parents!

Hi, First thank you for helping me with my baby, we’re sleeping and happy 😃 I have a good friend and her son is 21 months, she has always rocked him to sleep and eventually transitioned to laying with him until he sleeps. Unfortunately she felt he was too big for the crib and removed it months ago and he now sleeps on a mattress beside their own bed. The problem is he will not fall asleep on his own and she has to lay there 2 hours until he finally falls asleep at about 10pm. What advice do you have for this situation how can she teach him to fall asleep on his own? Any recommendations would be super helpful! Thank you so much! ❤️

Hi Larissa! Glad we've helped you. 💜If you want to make money referring us, sign up here: www.babysleepmadesimple.com/referral-program/ We don't recommend transitioning out of the crib until 3-4 years old, because it always leads to sleep issues. Children just aren't developmentally ready before this age to sleep without physical boundaries. She could either move baby to a travel crib and sleep train with us, and we can transition baby to a toddler bed when they're ready.

I'm finding that if kids (like adults) have it too warm & tosty, they don't sleep as well and, we usually get warmer in the middle of the night as our metabolism slows to a crawl. Cooler & a blanket at their side ready to put over if they get cold seems to be good.

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

Hi, The ideal sleep temperature for children is between 68 and 72 degrees Fahrenheit. We always recommend this to our clients, as well as dressing your baby appropriately.

Hi! Here is our guide on transitioning from crib to toddler bed: www.babysleepmadesimple.com/how-to-transition-toddler-from-crib-to-bed You can also use these tips to help keep her in the crib as long as possible: If your crib has uneven sides, put the shorter side against the wall and push it up against a corner, so there are less sides to climb out. Make sure there are no bumpers, pillows, or blankets that are in the crib that your LO can use for height to climb out. Try a sleep sack. Have the mattress at the lowest setting Try this for a few days and nights with a firm “No” when your LO tries to climb out. See if this helps after a few days Clare, BSMS Support Team

We have a micropreemie who had to be fed bottles at night when she was 16 months could stop waking her to feed was never told to wheen her off until 20 months now we are potty training and wondering if we should just tackle night potty training too since she already wakes once at night anyway

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

Hi Eden, Our approach to this is to keep your little one in a diaper at night until they're out of the crib. Ideally, they sleep in a crib until age 3 years so they can stay safe at night. If you've already transitioned out of the crib and need help balancing potty training & sleep, I'd recommend you book a private consultation with one of our sleep consultants to discuss this! programs.babysleepmadesimple.com/30-minutes-private-consultation-checkout/ I hope this helps, Artemis, BSMS Support Team

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

Hi! It could be a combination on over tiredness, separation anxiety and the not knowing how to fall asleep independently. The video above will help you with the general tips. If you'd like more detailed assistance on how to teach your LO this skill, our program 21 Days to Peace&Quiet walks you through the steps. I will link the info below.

Hi thanks for the great video. My daughter is soon to be 2 yrs. She used to be self settle but it’s been nearly 2 months, she’s crying and refusing bedtime. I’ve tried to used Ferber method to sleep train again but she was crying so much to the point she vomited (this happened several times). What other options do I have ?

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

My now 2 yr old goes to sleep ok on his own but wont go to sleep until 10-11pm. He wakes up around 6:30am to go to the bathroom but then sleeps until 8:30-9am. He has a problem with not wanting to nap until around 2-3pm and im worried it's too late to nap...any advice on trying to make bedtime earlier? Even if he doesnt nap he still wont go to bed before 10

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

The best way to have an earlier bedtime is to wake your toddler up earlier in the morning. Move his awake time earlier by 30 mins every day. So wake him at 8:30 am today, and 8 am tomorrow. He can be expected to sleep 11-12 hours at night. You also move his nap earlier so his awake times are 5-6 hours and voila! You have an earlier sleep schedule. I hope this helps.

Hi Jilly, Thanks for your advice. My 2 year old son was very bad in sleep since he born. He is 2 years old now and we still straggling for night sleep and he also wakes in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep no matter how hard he tries (I can see through the monitor). He is awake for hours even five hours! And I try to help him with offer milk or change his nappy etc. I am very concerned about his sleeping and specially his sleepness hours at night. Do you have any advice for me?

My two year old has never been a good sleeper, but around 2.5 he got much better and was sleeping through the night in his own bed for the most part. But since his baby sister arrived a few months ago, he wakes up every night and comes into our bed. He says, no one is in his room with him. I feel bad because he is right, he is the only one sleeping in his own room while mom, dad, and baby sister are in a room together. So I give in but I know I am creating a bad habit. Any recommendations? When do you recommend moving a baby into a sibling's room?

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

Hi there. Thank you for reaching out. I know it's hard, especially since your LO had been sleeping through. But most of the times new babies can change things, and can affect the older sibling's sleep. Please check out our guide on how to keep your LO in his bed. Here's the link --> www.babysleepmadesimple.com/toddler-getting-out-of-bed-repeatedly-2 and this video --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpvHnKSegMt9nNE Try implementing these tips for a few days and then let us know how things work out.

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

Hello Joe! Is your LO around 2 years old? We often see a sleep regression around 2 years old, and having a newborn around can cause a little chaos at first. This was exactly me this past June! I would definitely make sure to have a white noise machine in your 2 year old's room so that he isn't woken up from any newborn crying. This helped me tremendously. Next, I would make sure he falls asleep independently. He may become dependent on being held to fall asleep. If he is crying, just check in at timed intervals. We cover more of this in our sleep program if you are looking for step by step guidance. Also, check out our free 2 year old sleep guide for helpful tips! Congrats on your new baby!

Now they share a room but it’s madness trying to get both of them on the same page. I seriously need help I don’t sleep enough myself as they both wake up at least once. I’ve tried to “lay” with my 23 month old and pretend to fall asleep with him but it doesn’t work, while my 12 month old cries because he sees me not paying attention to him.

My 2 year old sleeps 2am or 3am every night/morning and wakes up at 1 or 2 in the afternoon. This has been happening since she was almost 2. She is turning 3 this year in December. Surprisingly she’s very smart and can count upto 13 and knows her abc and her colours. Should I be concerned with her sleeping time? She has way too much energy. I think her sleep was ruined when we moved houses in 2019 when we didn’t sleep until 4am.

You can start to slowly shift her schedule by waking her 15-30 mins earlier each day and then putting her to bed 15-30 mins earlier that night. Move it every couple of days. Clare, BSMS Support Team

Hello and thanks for your message! We would love to help you! I know how tough it is when your little one isn't sleeping. My first thought is that your little one is napping too late in the day. Because he falls asleep at 5pm, he only has 3 hours of awake time until an 8pm bedtime, which isn't enough time. I would try an earlier nap time, 1:30-3:30PM and see how that works.

[@nilayjordon]

Thank you for sharing this, it has great information. I also watched and read your survival kit, but one thing I didn't see addressed is when my 2 year old wakes up at 4:30 a.m., do I have him go back to sleep and continue putting him to bed earlier 15 min every day or just let him stay up and continue with the program of 15 min. earlier every night? He will cry/scream for hours if we don't get him out of his crib. His bed time was 8:30-9:00, but I now know this is too late and I've slowly been transitioning him for the past few days to no avail just yet since I discovered your website. He naps everyday for the most part from 12:15pm-2:15pm. Thank you!

[@nilayjordon]

To add to my question above, I should also mention that I have blackout curtains, white noise, wind-down about 30-40 minutes before bed i.e books/no screen time/dimmed lights. There has never been co-sleeping, he has a few loveys, he is very active during the day and he's a great eater, we keep his daycare routine on the weekends too, he has no sugar with or after dinner, he doesn't climb out of his crib (regularly), he doesn't wake in the middle of the night and doesn't snore. He screams like his crib is on fire, but if I bring him to the couch in the family room, he'll pass out in 3 minutes for a few hours because he's tired. There have been no major changes in our lives in a long time and he's been getting up early for months! We started at putting him to bed at 8:30pm-9:00pm, and we have decreased it to 8:00pm in 15 minute increments in the past week with no change. We will try to go earlier in the next few days also. So, my questions was....should he go back to sleep (on the family room couch) for a few hours or stay up after waking at 4:30am and hope that putting him to be earlier eventually works, or should I let him cry/scream it out for hours? (he's very very persistent) Yikes, this is long, but my patience has become very short :(

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

@@nilayjordon Hi Nilay! Thanks for your comment! It seems like the best solution right now is moving bedtime earlier, which will ease the over tiredness. If your LO is having nightmares, it can also be a sign of overtiredness, so an earlier bedtime is a win win. It is also completely normal for your LO to scream in bed but fall asleep as soon as you're next to him. In the long run, it would be good to find other ways to help your LO from any sleep aids/habits and separation anxiety. It will take some time to get back on the track, so be consistent and patient. If you'd like more detailed assistance, I strongly recommend joining our program, 21 Days to Peace&Quiet.

Hi i have lots to learn from your video..i wonder when you say nap time in the middle of his day, what is the best time for nap in a day??…because my 2yr old sleeps at 6pm but she wakes up at 8pm or 9pm and she goes back to sleep at 3am and she wakes up at 11am..thats why i really dont know how to start the right time to sleep bcoz if she wakes up at 11am she doesn’t sleep or nap not until 6pm…thats her time to sleep everynight..its killing me!! Pls advice! Thank u.

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

This sounds really exhausting for all of you. We would aim for the nap to be around 12pm for a two year old, depending on their wake up time. We can definitely help you and your family get on track with the sleep you need and deserve in our program 21 days to Peace and Quiet. www.babysleepmadesimple.com/baby-sleep-consultant Happy to answer anymore questions you may have, Clare, BSMS Support Team

My two and half years old doesn’t go to sleep fast, he stay for almost 1 hour before he fall asleep and if we let him stay up all night he will, I’m losing my mind. I don’t know if a bad parent or what’s going on!! I’m a late sleeper myself and he’s my first one. Most of the time he wakes up at 11 Am and doesn’t sleep at all until 2 or 3 AM

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

Hi Jake, You are not a bad parent! Toddlers are just busy little bees, and certain wake windows, routines, and schedules can help optimize their sleep and reduce power struggles. We cover ALL of this in our Big Kid course, which is filled with positive parenting strategies that will help your LO fall asleep peacefully and independently each night.

I’m going through it right now with my toddler! He just turned 2. He was sleeping in his pack n play but now he cries as soon as I put him down in his room. He cried for an hour and a half 😩. I am now putting him in his crib. He has cried when it’s time to nap and go to bed at night. It’s getting frustrating 🥴. I feel bad because he’s crying I don’t want him to hurt himself crying so much. He even throws up because he’s crying so hard. I never had a sleep pattern he stays up super late and I have “no me time.” Idk what I’m doing wrong 😩

Oh gosh this sounds totally exhausting for you. Two year olds can be so stubborn as well! Our program can help you get your LO sleeping through the night in his crib: www.babysleepmadesimple.com/21-days-to-peace-quiet-program It will help you to develop a daily routine for your LO so that you can have me time. I went through the program and my two year old naps for two hours at the same time every day and 12 hours overnight. It is so important for me to get that break from her. Toddlers can be HARD!

My 22 month old is a terrible sleeper, he falls asleep between 7:30 and 8 after a bath, breast feed and a lullaby but then usually around 9:30 - 10:30 he wakes up and doesnt fall asleep, screams if me or my husband is not in his room and something can take several hours till he falls asleep, sometimes he doesnt fall asleep unless i take him to my bed. He then wakes up again about 4 and because im so tired from going late to bed i bring him to my bed and he sleeps till about 8 in my bed. During the day its very hard to get him to sleep and he sleeps for maximum 1:30 hours. Please help!!!!

We have triplets. And there are mainly two problems. One is that one out of three takes a long time to fall asleep at night no matter what we try. And the other more serious problem is they wake up several times during the night for milk. Once we give them a bottle of milk they drink it and fall back to sleep again. We have tried feeding them before bed time but it was not successful.

Hey Jilly! I actually bought your program when my baby was tiny, and had really awesome success with her! Unfortunately at 2years she's still waking up one or two times a night for some comfort from me to go back to sleep. She goes to sleep on her own no problem, but I'm just having a hard time tackling the night wakings. I don't want to just leave her there to cry, any suggestions? Maybe sitting with her until she falls asleep in the middle of the night? I hope you and your family are doing well!

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

Hello! Thanks so much for your message. We are glad that you had success. You can try to repeat the sleep training method that you used when your LO was young. It sounds like your LO needs to learn how to self-soothe again during the middle of the night. You can try sitting with her and then gradually moving away from the crib every night until you are out the door. The most important thing is to get her back to soothing on her own for those night wakings! :) Alyssa, BSMS Support Team

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

Hello and thanks for your message! It sounds like your LO is getting close to the 2 year mark and we often see a regression around this time. Keep encouraging your LO to nap or at least "rest" in the crib during the designated nap time. Be super consistent with your routines since the nap regression should pass.

Hello, My 2.4 year old son started to refuse his afternoon nap. He doesn’t sleep by himself. He never did since a baby. I have to be there next to him until he falls asleep. I used to rock him out but now he doesn’t even want to be rocked anymore. Anyway my back doesn’t allow that anymore either😔 I can’t always lay down with him because the baby on the other hand wont let me. Baby doesn’t sleep either longer than 30-40 min naps, during the day and 30 min sometimes its not enough time for my toddler to fall asleep🤦🏻‍♀️ Could you please send some sleep training advice or any tips what I need to do? My toddler when he finally goes to sleep at 7:30-8pm will sleep 12 hours straight. Its that enough sleep for a 2 year old? The afternoons are horrible because he is super tired and becomes so moody and will have tantrums for nothing because he is overtired. I don’t know what to do to help him. I tried everything i know best and nothing seems to work. Thank you for your time and support!

Hi I have a 28 month girl. Since she was 7 months she slept alone in her crib in her own room. I got pregnant twice after and the last time I was pregnant I began to have problems with my toddler. Ill be honest she does sleep late but that was never a problem. I think the problem was that I stayed over for my quarantine with my in-laws and my toddler slept with my mom in-law right beside her but in her own bed. When we came back home it ended been a problem, she does not want to sleep in her own room. She cries waaay too much, I tried to sleep with her and leave quietly but in the middle of the night she would come in and sleep in our bed. I don't know what to do. I need for her to learn to sleep in her own bedroom.

Hi there Saira. Normally, most kids stop napping around 4 years old. It's not wrong if your LO stopped napping, but it would be better if they did. Also it depends, whether your kid is happy or not. If they get grumpy or fussy during the day, or their night sleep is interrupted due to overtiredness maybe they still need to nap for an hour or so.

My 2 year old does not sleep through the night...at all. Yesterday she woke up at 2 a.m went back to sleep at 5 a.m and woke up at 5:45. She took a nap at 10 am, woke up at 12 noon,, went to bed at 8 p.m., woke up at 12 a.m. and is still awake at 3:42 a.m. I am losing my mind!

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

Hi! Oh no, sorry to hear that! It sounds exhausting! I would recommend starting with our age base sleep guide/video above, which will cover all the basics and help manage expectations at this stage. Implement the guide for 2 weeks straight and you should see improvements. (THIS IS CRUCIAL). In addition, make sure communication is the key of your process and besides of communicating the routine during the day, communicate your expectations of what you'd like her to do when she wakes up at night. Something along the lines of: "If you wake up at night, mommy will come to give you a kiss, but then it's time to go back asleep and we can cuddle/read/play etc. in the morning". You can make a song out of this or drawing/printable etc. and "learn it" during the day, for a couple of weeks and she'll know what to expect. It is often useful to teach your LO how to fall asleep independently, this will lead for them STTN and thus improving sleep all around! If you'd like more detailed assistance on how to teach your LO this skill, our program 21 Days to Peace&Quiet walks you through the steps. I will link the info below. I'd be happy to answer any additional questions about the program. Good luck mama! / Leena, BSMS Support Team

An active mind can also create night terrors . Some of us don't have good dreams we don't have nightmares it's pure terror and the difference is the emotional impact of the dream... Steven King only has nightmares. Always try to wake them it's better to stop it and comfort them. Dreams are not contextual they are all about the emotions and the brain practices encountering emotions you don't often feel. If you are not loved you will dream of love if you are never truly frightened or terrified your brain will do practice runs of that emotion. So not really a bad thing to have nightmares it means your other basic emotions have been fulfilled. I'm 40 and I have been researching dreams for about 25 years. This is what I have found to be true for my situation. Unfortunately my daughter has terrifying dreams too never giggling shes always fighting. 😞 there are drugs to suppress the memory of bad dreams none of which can be taken until adulthood. You will still have them you just won't consciously remember them and be emotionally disturbed for the rest of the morning or day.

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

Hi, Mike! There's a big difference between night terrors and nightmares. You can't be woken up from a night terror and you usually don't remember it in the morning. Nightmares are a normal way our brain uses to handle any pieces of information that might have been scary or uncomfortable. This is why you can try to avoid any triggers during the day so that your child doesn't have bad dreams. For example, getting adequate rest, avoiding overstimulating/scary books and videos, having a stable, loving home and proper nutrition- many of these are mentioned in the video. Thank you for your feedback, though! Artemis, BSMS Support Team

I feel like a terrible parent. I'm a sahm and my fiance gets home from work close to 6pm M-F. So if I implemented an earlier sleep schedule, my fiance wouldn't get much time to spend with our son, he's just shy of turning 2. He's been going to sleep inconsistently between 8 and 11pm. It's rough on us, especially me, because I am still breastfeeding as well. I really don't know what to do. I'm so stressed and conflicted over his sleep schedule when I don't get much sleep myself. I tend to wake up late because of this, which ends up affecting my son's sleep pattern.

[@Babysleepmadesimple]

Hello, Please don't feel like a terrible parent! You are the perfect parent for your little one. Children under 5 years of age do better with earlier bedtimes. An 8pm bedtime is very reasonable at this age. I would have your fiance be very active in the bedtime routine process so that way he can spend quality time with your little one! This works very well for parents on a later schedule. We do offer 1:1 private Zoom consults if you need assistance creating a customized schedule for your son!
