Question

My 2 year old wont sleep in his crib the whole night. wakes up crying for me to get him out. help!

Answer 1

Get him out and let him sleep with you.  They grow up so fast! Love every minute of it!

Answer 2

y is ur 2 yr old still in a crib, maybe its time to step up to a big boy bed.  

Answer 3

I think it is time for a big boy bed! Make it fun by letting him help you pick out his new big boy bed and then he might be excited to sleep in it at night! Good luck

Answer 4

First of all, if the baby isn't getting in/out of the crib, by all means keep him in it. We went through this just a few months ago. My daughter would wake up and think she didn't have to go back to sleep. It was a nightmare! We just had to sacrifice some sleep for a couple weeks and get real firm with her. When she would wake up, we would give her a drink of water and lay her back down, rub her back or tummy and try try try to get her to fall back asleep. She needed to be reassured but also taught that it wasn't alright for her to wake up and get out of her bed whenever she wanted. Just set some rules and stick with them. The hard part will be over before you know it. Good luck!

Answer 5

You might want to try and explain to him that he is a big boy and that he needs to sleep in his big boy bed. Yes, buy him a new bed. We tried to get our son to sleep in his crib but he refused. When we got him his own bed he was just fine. Also, make his room or area around his bed special by hanging things he likes that will make him comfortable and feel safe.

Answer 6

Sounds like he may be ready for a toddler bed

Answer 7

I agree with the others...sounds like he might enjoy a big kid bed (toddler bed).
