I have a 6 year old who wakes up sometimes 4 to 6 times a night and cries when she is put back in her bed. She tells us she needs company and doesn't want to sleep alone. Sometimes she'll sleep through the night with no problems at all. How can I get her to sleep throught the night in her own bed and get a good nights sleep? Can I get some suggestions with this problem???
It seems that you have spoiled her little bit but that can be corrected. She is afraid of what? Did you try to explain to her that she needs to learn to sleep on her own? And if she saw you and your husband sleeping together than she could be jealous and it is known fact that children in that age are very selfish so reasons for this type of behavior are countless.
You could try to get her exhausted during the day with all sorts of physical activity which you can camouflage into child’s games. This will help her to sleep better and it will also keep you in shape.
Second option is to read to her until she fell asleep. Good luck and I hope this will help.
