We bought that bed 2 years ago and he has never wanted to sleep in it. He falls asleep in minutes if he gets in my bed or lays on the couch but if I try to get him to sleep in his bed I usually end up fighting with him for hours. Any suggestions?

Unfortunately the sleep part of it usually takes a while to happen! I have tried all ways to train her but she just wouldn't do it the way I want, up until now. She's always been a headstrong one. Duncan - Lucky you. I used to work full-time and get home late at night, so she adjusted her sleep routine to have some time with us before going to bed. By the time I started working from home, the routine was firmly fixed. Mike – It’s a bedtime story, then prayer followed by a bottle and sleep.

On the odd occasion we might let him stay up till 8:30, but he usually falls asleep before then. We've been druming this routine into him though ever since he went off solids, so I suppose practice makes perfect.

We waited till this morning because K had guitar lessons and I had to go buy groceries and Alison was asleep when we got home. Got a bit peeved this morning because no one seemed to want to cut the cake that Jean had bought. Alison was busy watching Cartoon Network and K was zonked from working through the night.
