Rainbow dash

Rainbow dash was what my little Miss picked as a treat present for being such a good girl and sleeping in her own bed all night for a few weeks finally.

Little Miss was a good sleeper as a baby, no issues till we moved house and she learnt to climb out of her cot.
We quickly put her in a cot bed, so she didn't hurt herself. Then the nightmare began. She would constantly get out the bed, she wouldn't settle.
We tried everything lying next to her, sitting next to the bed slowly moving out to the landing, bribing her, changing bed sets, rooms, putting in something that reminded her of me, you name it we tried it.
Then we gave in and let her sleep with us and she has been there ever since. Its stressful and not perfect puts a strain on sleeping and relationships, people don't realise what its like to have 5 years of broken and little sleep and still smile in the morning.

Then I decided enough was enough she has a lovely room, bed and everything. So sat down and spoke to her said she could pick anything if she started sleeping in there and staying in there.

Its worked she is obviously old enough to understand now and has been amazing and done really well.
