The last two weeks have been absolute HELL with bedtime! He always went to bed like a dream, but he's got into a habit of making me or dad stay in the room until he's falling asleep.
Bedtime used to be around 7-7.30 but we're now pushing 9pm 😠is this just a stage?

I had to stop laying with my little one for this particular reason because I used to always lay with her and she used to take an hour or more to go to sleep! But one night I was unwell and put her to bed and said "mummy's got to go to her bed and sleep early now" and she ended up going to sleep a lot quicker than when I cuddled her. And it wasn't even a one off, I leave her every night now and within 20 minutes she's gone, sometimes it's even 5 minutes and it doesn't matter what time I put her to bed
