How to get my 2 yr old to sleep alone?
my son will sneak in our room in the middle of the night and he will fall asleep with us. Now the big problem is neither me or my husband wake up when he does this. How do we stop him when we are not awake to put him back into bed? He use to come crying to our room but soon learned that we would put him back in his bed. He has wised up and sneaks now so we dont wake up. Any ideas????
I have already posted this abot my 2 yr old sneaking in my room. All the responses were good ones but alot I have already tried. He sleeps with a radio on and wont go to bed without it. He has a fishtank next to his bed. He shares a room with his 9 month old brother. When I talk to him about it all I eve get out of it is " I wanna sleep in mommy's bed) There is no tv in his room. We had to stop that. He would stay up way late watching tv and not going to bed. I seriously think I am stuck with a cute little boy next to me every morning till he grows out of this stage.

Why don't you put like a radio or tv or somthing in his room so he won't think he's alone...i know that has worked for me when i was little...

It's hard to have kids learn to sleep by themselves, through the night, when you have let them sleep with you. I have the same problem with my son, but I can't even get him in his bed at all. Your doing good with him atleast falling asleep alone for the first half of the night. He is very smart, though, sneaking in so you won't wake up.
Maybe when you do wake up and see him in there, take him back into his room. If he's awake by that time already, tell him, no, your supposed to sleep in your bed. Or ask him "Why did you come sleep with mommy and daddy and not stay in your bed"? Maybe his answer will help you figure out a solution.

why don't you put a child's bed in your room and he can crawl up in that bed and still be close to you but not in bed with you :)
