[quote=Anonymous]Does he share a room with his sibling? My 4yo does, and she's pretty bad about waking up a lot at night as well. I can usually threaten to move her to a bedroom by herself so she doesn't wake her sister, which can be effective. My pediatrician also recommended moving the sister out of the bedroom into our room (temporarily) as a way to get the 4yo to stay in her room since she does NOT like to sleep by herself. For the record, he also said sometimes you do need to "lock" them in (ie, hold the door closed, not padlock or whatever). He said yes, they'll flip out and go hysterical. But you hold the door closed, calmly tell them you love them but it's time to go to bed (so they're not alone locked in the room) until they fall asleep, often on the floor by the door. He said it may take only a day or two of that, though it's obviously a last resort. [/quote]
