Hello, mommies!!! ??? I'm out of energy, my 3-year-old daughter has been going to bed late, around 00:00-02:00, for almost three months now??? She only wants her mom (for shower and bedtime), but doesn't want her dad. When it's time for baby routines (changing diapers and feeding), she waited until I was free. After the shower, I read her a story between 21:30-23:00 and stayed next to her so she could fall asleep, but no luck, she just can't fall asleep for a long time... She naps during the day (varying from 1-3 hours), and sometimes she goes to bed late even without a daytime nap... ??? Has anyone else experienced this? What should I do?

Hello! I understand how tough it is when your little one doesn't want to go to bed on time. Perhaps your daughter has simply shifted to a later sleep schedule due to changes in her behavior or environment. It's important to remember that each child is unique, and what works for one may not work for another. Try establishing a stricter bedtime routine for your daughter. Set specific times for dinner, a shower, and reading a bedtime story, and try to stick to this schedule every day. It can also be helpful to create a calm and cozy atmosphere in the room where your daughter sleeps to help her relax and fall asleep faster. If the problem persists, consider seeking help from a pediatrician or a sleep specialist. They can provide advice and recommendations to improve your child's sleep. Don't despair; with patience and consistency, you can establish a good sleep routine for your daughter. Good luck! ???

This is how it was for us, really, ever since he turned 2. We would stay up until 3 or 4 in the morning. And in the morning, he would sleep until 11. Then I started waking him up at 9-10 and putting him down for a nap for just an hour, no later than 15:00. Gradually, things started to normalize.

It's the same with us now. Moreover, both of them go to bed late. The younger one doesn't sleep because his brother isn't sleeping. And the older one won't sleep without me. I'm incredibly tired. They say to forcibly wake them up in the morning. But then we won't see dad at all after work??‍♀️

I do the same, there aren't activities like in summer or autumn, now it's just walking outside without games, maybe that's why.

Our nap time at the daycare is 2.5 hours, starting between 12 and 1 PM. Wake-up time is at 7:30 AM. That means for her, 15 hours of wakefulness is normal if she has a daytime nap. Otherwise, she won't go to bed earlier. Here, the only options are either to completely remove the daytime nap if she's not attending daycare, and then her night sleep would be 11-12 hours, or to wake her up earlier. That's how it is for us. When she wasn't in daycare, I removed the daytime nap. It was very convenient.
