[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder about staying up with her in the living/family room with low lights and calm activities (reading together, a mild craft/drawing), maybe a solid non-sugary snack and milk around 9pm, and then establish a shorter bedtime routine where she actually falls asleep at the end of it (which might mean starting the routine around 9:45 right now). Once that’s peaceful and normal, try moving it back a few minutes a night and see how early you can get it? Sometimes in my experience acceptance helps me see a new way of incorporating peace. The hours of her screaming when you want her asleep sound like the challenge to me, not the total number of hours she’s sleeping. [/quote] This sounds worth a try! Will try and report back![/quote]
