My 2 1/2 YO Temper Tantrums At Night
Hi ladies,
as you probably have all experienced our LOs like to go through phases lately my oldest son cameron has mastered the art of potty training lol am so proud of him as his moved onto the toliet completley now and decided that he wants to be clean at night too. it has been about 4 - 5 weeks now and we havent had ine accident or wet bed, so not much to complain about! lol. but his discovered that everywhere we go has a toilet so he likes to check them out , over the past 3 days as soon as i go to walk out of his room at night he screams that he needs the toilet although he has just sat on it for ages before going to bed. i have ignored him every night but the screaming goes on for hours so loud he has nearly lost his voice!. he has a lindam flexigate on his door as he recently started sneaking in with us (we have 12 week old in swinging crib so was worried about him trying to get him out) but sat night he learned to climb it! so no more gate! last night when he woke up at 4.30 we shut our door(hoped ignoring would work) so he was in small hallway with all doors shut screaming and banging for two whole hours and when we opened the door to go down stairs he stoped crying smiled and said morning mummy,daddy! lol couldnt believe it! we have had reapeat tonight took 2 hours to go to sleep opened the toilet door in the end so he could sit on it until he was bored!
