Does your 3.5 y/o sleep through the night? That’s it. Just want to now if it’s just mine who never has and still does not.

Hello, I'm a Stanford student researching home cleaning products that are healthier for people, pets, and the environment than existing solutions. I'm looking for anyone willing to give feedback on an idea, especially if you are in one of the following groups: - parents/caretakers of children...

My daughter is 3. I love her more than life itself. She's soooo good. A fantastic listener, picks up her toys when I ask (usually), etc. So I probably sound ungrateful when I say, I'm SO frustrated that she will not go the f**k to sleep. I work full time, so does hubby, and we currently...

Due to staggered positive tests/ isolation times, we just had to keep my 3 y/o home from day care/ preschool for 4 weeks (12/14 - 01/10). She’s been back a week and I just feel like we’re waiting for the other shoe to drop (aka “the fckening”)… Today, another mom in the class tells me they’re...

My 3 year old (4 in May) has been waking up 2-3 times a night for what feels like months now. We have a strict bed time of 7:30-8 ish. We start the process at 7:30. We read a story, go potty, brush our teeth, put on pjs, etc. he wakes up literally screaming multiple times a night. Then is...

Would really appreciate any recommendations. Thank you!

So my SO and I haven't slept well for almost a year lol. Slept trained our toddler and things were going great, molars came and f'ed it all up. Her crib is just glorified storage at this point after months of coaxing and wakings and ugh just trying to keep her in her bed while making it a lovely...

Obviously tongue and cheek, but I see no reason to take my now three year old out of her crib until she a) tries to climb out or b) is ready to get up in the middle of the night to potty by herself. She seems perfectly happy. Am I stunting her growth? ETA: Reddit DID change my mind…sorta. I...

Posting in the toddlers sub b/c my daughter has been an inconsistent sleeper since I can remember. She's almost 4 1/2 now and she can't naturally fall asleep before 11 PM. She has undiagnosed ADHD (it runs in the family - my husband and I have been diagnosed, and her older sister has it also)...

My daughter is turning 3… 3 days before Christmas. I have no clue what to get her/what to tell people when they ask for a present list for her. Time is ticking and I’ve basically procrastinated this until the last minute, which adds more stress, which is making my mind go blank. What are y’all...

Hello 👋🏻 I initially posted this on r/pottytraining, but no one has responded 😅😅So, my son is 3. He’ll be 4 in June and then plans to start preschool in August. He’s done pretty well with potty training for the most part and rarely, if ever, has accidents during the day anymore. The only time he...

Edit: I just want to thank everyone for their kind, thoughtful, supportive responses. It all has helped me come back around. I'm so happy to have this safe space to have gotten this out and gotten the support I needed in a tough time. Today was a really hard day but this sub has really helped me...

Hi all, my kid got chickenpox since Thursday with some common cold symptoms too. He has been asking for more screen time than usual (Peppa, Peppa!) and yesterday we watched like 2.5 h total. Today he already asked again. I'm trying to entertain him and keep him busy but he gets fussy/cranky and...

My baby is 15 weeks, so I know I have many many moons before this concern. However, I received ads about toddler beds enough times that I question if the pack n play will be enough. Originally when I received it, I thought I could use it until 3 or 4 for sleepy time. The ad made me wonder when...

So my just turned 3 year old was asleep when I got home last night, so I drew him a big heart with "love" in all caps in the middle to see when he wakes up this morning (on vtech sketch toy). When he saw it, I asked him what shape that was. He replied instead by saying "L-O-V-E... spells...

Hi there, I just let my nanny go and am going to enroll my daughter in daycare. The personalities are meshing and it’s stressing my young daughter out. She just turned 3 yesterday. She is familiar with the potty, but isn’t fully potty trained. She is going to be starting daycare. We tour the...

My daughter (2 yrs 1 mo) has been a unicorn sleeper ever since we sleep trained her around 8 months using extinction. Here is the schedule she was most recently doing great on: Wake: 7:30 (would sleep longer if we let her) Nap: 12:30-3 (would sleep longer if we let her) Bed: 7:30 A couple...

I scrawled through reddit searching for tips on flying with a 21 month old for 16 hours total (2 flights plus a 4 hour layover). I was scared shitless after basically being told by reddit posters that it will be soul destroying. I wanted to reassure any parents of a toddler that REFUSES to sit...

My niece is 2 years old almost 3 and is very mean to my 8 month old baby. Sometimes she’ll play with him and be so sweet but for some reason every time she’s around him she will hit, kick, push, throw toys, run him over or if he has a toy she goes up to him says “no baby” and will either throw...
