My three year old won't sleep in her own bed help please

My three year old won't sleep in her own bed. Why I have no idea. She is always climbing into bed with Grandma and won't stop I've asked my mother to put her back in her bed as she needs to break the habit and I am trying to teach her that she is safe and able to sleep in her bed but I am out of ways to get this into my mom's head that this has too be done.

My three year old also throws a screaming crying fit till she sleeps. But it isn't an option to move her out of the room with her sisters because we don't have a spare room for her we live with my parents and there is only three bedrooms.

I am not sure how to make her feel better sleeping do I put lights up on the bunk bed because the other two love the dark and sleeping in the dark but the middle just won't she is such a hard to get to sleep kids I've never had this issue with my oldest.

But it is like a battle too get my mother to listen and be on the same page. I had really bad nightmares and I still do could she be the same ? Im out of options I don't know what more to do please can I have some suggestions.

Thank you

When do things get easier?

As we entered the 9-12 month stage, my son started crawling and pulling himself up. He also became more clingy and does not play alone, still doesnt sleep through the night, and this week has been sick (so EVERYTHING amplified). I am tired and overwhelmed. Please lie and tell me things get better. 🥺

4 month bed time

What time do you put your babies to bed?
What time do you start your 'routine?'
My LO currently goes to bed around 10.30pm, and I know i need to start bringing it forward. Everytime ive tried, it takes longer for my LO to settle.
We are exclusively breastfeeding. Any advice Mamas?

Colostrum storing?

Has anyone successfully extracted colostrum before the baby’s born? Apparently it gets produced from 16w pregnant and you can start storing it in the freezer but I’m 34w looking at my nipples and the syringes on amazon wondering how it works?? Like what did you use and did it hurt? 🥲

Baby with chronic congestion

Hi everyone! My 1 year has been a congested baby since birth almost. She breathes through her mouth so often that it wakes her up multiple times at night and she cries and screams and then struggles to go back to sleep. She wakes up every 1-3 hours and sometimes can’t go back to sleep for 2-3 hours!!! Piriton is the only thing that seems to help her sleep mostly through the night but I can’t keep giving her that!!
Does anyone have tips as to have I can do or give her? Has anyone experienced? I have no idea when I’ll get an ENT appointment and I have no idea what he can give a 13 mo :( we are desperate for sleep so any tips are welcome!! We have tried steam inhalation, saline drops, vapour rubs and everything off the counter basically!

Combi feeding advice

Has anyone gone from EBF to combi feeding? Currently do one bottle of EBM per night and they one half formula half breast milk mixed in the day. The other times she still feeds on me. Ideally I want to feed all day via bottle and all night with breast. She’s 7 weeks and takes a bottle well, how long should I leave it before adding another bottle to her daily routine?
