[quote=Anonymous]Don’t skip nap. I would aim for 7pm bedtime and not lie with him anymore. It sounds cruel, but what you’re doing for 2 hours every night is causing him anxiety—how long can I get mom to stay here, I need mom to fall asleep, why is mom leaving again? You need to set the expectation that he can fall asleep on his own. 2 nights with graduated checks that get longer by 3-6 minutes each time and I bet you’ll be done. Some kids just can’t have the negative sleep association of someone there helping them fall asleep without it causing anxiety at that age.[/quote]
