Refusing to nap nightmare after losing dummy
Need some advice ladies.
Last Wed my almost three year old son gave his dummy to the tooth fairy....we had talked about it for a long time and he decided that day he wanted to do it so we left it out and he got a present etc.
First night was an absolute fluke, he slept all night no problem after a few whinges at bedtime and we thought we'd got off pretty easy considering how much he loved his dummies. Next day was a nightmare basically screamed and refused to nap and night sleep was up constantly crying. The day after the same. Yesterday I thought we had broken through as he actually napped and slept fairly well at night but today again the screaming and refusal to nap or even have quiet time in his room.
Not sure what to do as this was a kid who would happily run to his room until a few days ago and sleep for a good 2-2.5 hours....I always had to wake him up....so I find it hard to believe he's ready to drop his nap. I know I can keep him up and put him to bed earlier but he then gets cranky all afternoon and won't get to see my husband who gets home between 7-730 and leaves super early in the morning. Our old routine was nap from 2-430ish, and then bed about 815 after playing with daddy and bath etc.
Any advice? Feeling exhausted and very disheartened although definitely not tempted to give the dummy back!
