My baby is almost a year and I have 3 other kids I never had any problem at bedtime with the other children but my youngest screams bloody murder whenever I put him down for bed, he shares a room with his older brother and he screams so loud that I have to move my older son into my room to go to bed until my baby falls asleep. We've had the same routine since he was born and just recently has he started throwing fits when I put him to bed does anyone have any suggestions on how to make bedtime easier for all of my family?

Is there ANYTHING that has changed in the room, the arrangement, blankets, paint, anything could upset him. That being asked it's all in what you want. I can't stand for mine to scream for more than a few minutes, of course her screach is so high I think it could shatter glass. I too don't want her waking the other two children since they all share a room. This site had some neat thoughts http://www.askdrsears.com/html/7/t070300...
Maybe he needs to stay up a lil later or get one less nap during the day now. Also simple things like learning to walk, crawl, teething, or just not feeling well can throw them into a tailspin. Liberty will NOT go to sleep without being in mine or my husbands arms. My other two would she is not there yet and I believe it is because she is the only one I have breastfed and she wants the closeness more. This is fine for now lol. Hope I helped at least a little...
