How do i stop my daughter getting up in the night?
Discussion
For the last month or so, my 3 year old daughter wakes up in the night gets out of her bed and into our bed.
She was a nightmare to get to bed from the word go, but i've sorted this and she goes to bed fine, but now does this in the night.
It wouldn't be so bad, but she snores like a bulldog, it's keeping me awake all night and if i try and move her she throws a total s
t fit.
Its starting to take its toll on me now and yet again today i'm fking wrecked.
Anyone had this problem with their kids in the past? Any CONSTRUCTIVE methods of stopping her getting up in the night?

If she throws a hissy fit, tough st, she's 3, she can't have it all her own way. I was once told that if your child gets up in the night, don't talk to them, don't engage in conversation with them. Just silently take them back to bed and eventully they'll get the message.
Failing that, sleep on the sofa.

You just have to keep putting her back into her own bed, and explain she is a big girl now, and she can't sleep with mum and dad.
It will take a while, but they do finally stop coming through.
And it means when they do sneak into the bed in the morning for a cuddle, you really don't mind

Same here with with my two year old. Started she started in between Christmas and New Year.
Always been a reasonable sleeper but has changed over night.
She can be up from midnight till 5am, either getting up every few minutes or every twenty or so and standing shouting for one of us at her gated door.
We have shifted her bed time from 7pm(ish) to 9pm(ish) in a bid to make sure she is tired enough, sadly this isnt working.
The best way we have found is to put her back in bed a few times and then gradually increase the timing in between putting her back in bed. Trouble is then she disturbs my son and good lady so they tend to get woken up in the process.

don't know why I found that one so funny!
Guys you cant just look your children in, it doesnt work like that 
I dont realise she's there untill the snoring starts, i'll try putting her back in her bed i just cant be doing with being kept up all night with her screaming.
Guess its my fault for not sorting it out when it started
