A little background- DS is almost 3 and didn't STTN until a little after he turned 2. I pretty much didn't sleep for 2 years. During that time my husband also started to SNORE. So he spends many nights in our guest room becasue I honestly cannot fall asleep with him anywhere near me. Needlless to say sleep is a touchy subject with me. We have our second child due at the end of June- so basically any time now.
About 8 weeks ago we offered DS the option to sleep in his own room and he happily agreed. We had a seemless transition from mommy and daddy's bed to his own bed. Hooray! I just didn't want to have to deal with a newborn and a toddler in our bed.
He'll wake up around 5 am and come into our room. No biggie- we're early risers and we're usually waking up around then anyway.
Then two weeks went by and he began to wak eup around 4 and come then. Then 3. Then 2:30.
Last night he came toddling in at 11:30. I did no let him come into the bed and I walked him back to his room where he fell asleep again with little to no fussing. But come 3:30, he came back.
WHat is going on???? I can't handle this! I'm getting so terrified of having a non-sleepign newborn and then a 3 yr old who is also waking up at night.
So what do I do? Continue to bring him back to his bed? Why is he waking up all of a sudden? He was sleeping like the dead for the past year.
Pleas help.
