My 2 year old only just started sleeping through the night in July.
It was great because i also got my 1 year old to do the same.

However now things have changed in the home. The kids father and i have broken up and he has moved out, My youngest son now lives with his father.

Thijson started waking in the night in august when my ex and i broke up. He wakes and will ask for a bottle or a cuddle or he will wake and just scream.

Often i find myself taking him to my bed just so i can get some sleep. =[

Im on a sedative medication which i have to take at night and find it really hard to get back to sleep if i am woken, so most of the time he is snoring his little head off and im laying there wishing i could do the same.

I have tried putting a safty lock on his door so that he atleast stays in his room but the cheeky bugger can open it , and gets out and goes to the lounge and lays down on the couch.

I dont know what to do any more the lack of sleep is affecting me, i have to nap every day. Thijson will nap with me but then its that whole cycle that we are struggling to break.

Additional information:

My son is 2 years old
Very active.
Slow with speech.
Eats very very well.
