Yes :) and throughout the night.

Yes!! As I’m sat here with my twins refusing bed and a full on day 😩 I think they know I’m desperate for them to go to sleep lol

Yes 😩 it’s been 5 days now and she is being really difficult during nap time and bed time 🥱

Yes! Managed to get the youngest, she's 2 next week, to stop screaming for me and settle but she takes forever to go to sleep! And a few hours later she still toddles through to my bed. Oldest, she's 5, just refuses sleep. They can be up till random times just refusing to sleep. Fml

Yep 😄 she is currently wide awake and taking everything out of my bedside table and I dont have the energy to fight it

Yes I’m with you mummies, lol For the past week or so now my little goes to bed between 8:30ish and 9pm and he sleeps for a couple hours then bloody wakes up and thinks it’s on to play and he’s awake for at least couple hrs after waking up. That drives me insane :(

Not sure what's going on but my boy is taking ages to fall asleep...

I'm sure it's the 2 year regression! It has to be! I've only just got her down!! But it's been impossible to get her to sleep before 9. We're stuck in this cycle of bedtime fights causing lates nights, she's sleeping in late, which is causing a late nap - which in turn is causing bedtime battles. When does it fucking end??

Same….she’s still not down and is buzzing. Used to be such a good sleeper, I hope it is a regression and it doesn’t last long.

My little one has just come out of the 2 year regression and my goodness🤯 3 weeks of absolute torture x

@India I think we must be on second week maybe, I went out for dinner two weeks ago and she was settling fine, Christ, I hope it doesn't last long 🤦 xx

@Charlotte will there ever come a time when overtiredness isn't an issue?? 🤦

He's always self settled and gone straight down no fuss, but this last week is just constant screaming at bedtime. I can't take it

Yesss.. where do they find the energy to keep moving..?! No doubt leached directly from my soul.. 😭😅

My youngest used to take forever to go to sleep. I had to sit with him and if I started creep out his eyes would fly open and off he went again. Eventually he would go to sleep but my husband caught me commando crawling out of his bedroom 😂

@Laura 😂😂😂😂

@Erica 😂😂😂👏👏

Yes!!!!!!! Screaming at 7pm for an hour and then up between 1-3 screaming to get mummy’s bed. Only way to get her back to sleep is just lift her into hours - it’s draining 🙈

@Jenny we're currently running on no nap so far today, so that will be interesting 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦

Omg 🙈🙈 our naps are ok - it’s just the want and need to be in our bed 🙈 I’m contemplating moving her from cot to cotbed but unsure if that will make things better or worse - she might be too young..

I know right!!!!! I’m undergoing ivf at minute too (egg retrieval was today) so ideally need her to stay in her bed so I can rest 🙈

It’s honestly been a uphill battle!! I’m trying all the tricks I can to get him to sleep … it’s like his on schedule one minute and the next minute he decides that he will stay awake until 1am

I had this for a few weeks before the clocks changed my LO wasn't falling asleep till gone 8 where as usually he's knock out by 7 then he was getting up at 5 I just put it down the the 2 year regression, he's sleeping better now and is cutting too back molars so I think it must have been a regression x hold in the mamas x

Since she hit 18 months it's not been the easiest 😅. I think that this week she started the 2 year regression...she's gone down for a nap twice this week so far and has been waking up every night. I know it could be so much worse but I do miss her sleeping through and going to sleep without a problem. It's exhausting!
