ISO of advice for 2.5 toddler sleep help. She started having what I think was a regression, and has now started sleeping in our bed the past week. She used to lie down quietly and play in her bed while falling asleep. Have had strong bedtime routine, nightlight, hatch light, and white noise machine since she was a baby. Did cry it out after 18 month regression and have always been strict about sleep. During this recent regression nothing worked and we formed this bad (for us) habit. Don’t think cry it out will work again b/c we’re at the “big emotion/lack of regulation” phase but I’m open to help. Has started to fight naps but will nap at daycare. Don’t think it’s teething as OTC meds don’t help. Open to all suggestions. TIA!
