Sleep and potty training tips

Morning mummas I have been trying to potty train my daughter and I’m not getting anywhere has anyone got any tips ? Also My daughters 3 In September and really struggle with sleeping in her own bed, I put her in her bed to start out with and that’s fine but then she will wake up around 12-1 in the morning and will scream and scream UNTILL I go get her and put her in my bed. The other problem is my 10 month old son cot is also in the room so if I leave her cry for long she wakes my son up. He sleeps fine and can sleep through the night in his own cot. Help I need some tips and does anyone else’s toddler do this ? Thanks xxxxx

Hey hun my son is 3 September too he will wake odd times crying but not every night and he don’t scream have you spoke to health visitor she could be having night Terrors x

My daughter is exactly the same! She's getting too big for our bed we have no idea what to do! We really don't want to have to put a mattress on her/our floor! We're so stuck I spoke to the HV she basically said at her age that's sort of the only option and over time leave earlier and earlier so follow if anyone else has any ideas but also know your not alone!

@Lindsey hey babe I did ask he as she had her last checkup not so long ago and they said it’s a habit and to try and get her out of the cycle of doing it but it’s hard as my son sleeps in the same room and she wakes him up so I’m at a loss of what to do xx

@Jayella hey 👋 thank goodness I though it was just her ! I’m at a loss of what to do as as if I leave her crying for long she wakes her brother up and I know what you mean my little girl is to big as well for our bed and she sleeps like a starfish 😂. I need my bed back

I’m with you on the potty training. I put one out for her to get used to etc and she started out really liking it and happily sitting on it for small bursts of time but not long enough to do anything on it but the last couple of weeks everytime I ask her if she wants to sit on the potty she cries no and runs away 🤦‍♀️ we’ve never made her sit there if she doesn’t want to so I don’t know why she suddenly doesn’t like it. With the sleep, I’m sure you have tried but will she settle back in her own bed if you sit there with her until she calms down? Luckily we got our daughter out the habit of being in our bed when she was around 9/10 months old but up until around 6 months ago we would have to sit in her room with her every time until she fell back asleep again
