Bedtime Question--Please Chime In!

For the last week or so when we put Archer to bed he screams--as if he is scared.

We have not changed the routine or anything and this is not the norm.

Anyone else experience this? Any suggestions?

It's his age. Landry started doing that about a month ago. It lasted for 2 weeks straight, then started tappering off. Don't worry, it's completely normal. He'll be past it before you know it!

This happened with Claire too but we had just put her in a big girl bed (2.5 years). Bedtime was a battle but we just had to be consistant with telling her what was expected, etc. We also did a sticker calendar so that she knew she'd earn something special if she did well.

oh, does actually say he's scared? We started leaving a light on in the bathroom (she didn't like the night light) and leaving her door cracked when we usually shut it all the way. We also have to have the closet door closed... OCD? a little =)

It's a phase. We went through it. Hopefully it ends soon for you!

Thanks for all the suggestions/comments.

We are still working through this phase--some nights are better than others!
