My 8 y-o has been a bad sleeper since birth too; we now give her melatonin to help her go to sleep, but she still wakes up at night all the time. She's an anxious kid too, so lots of things give her nightmares, but even when she's not scared, I've never known anyone with the ability to just *stay awake* like she can.

We have tried bathrooms, closets, laundry rooms, etc., but usually only for one night at a time. I purposely try to make it uncomfortable so they don't want to stay. Sometimes I think it would be nice to have "bedrooms" just big enough for a twin mattress to fit on the floor; Shawniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03115475298232800470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4094700953309998492.post-34022967219416388552015-05-15T23:42:50.423-04:002015-05-15T23:42:50.423-04:00Haha too many funny stories here.

You may have already tried this, or you might think it's crazy. But, we started waking her up, just enough to maybe go potty half asleep, when we were going to bed. It broke up her sleeping routine and with in a week, she was sleeping all night in her own bed. <br /><br />Also my 3 year old loves to "work" by taking Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04111265439845415696noreply@blogger.com
