My son is 15 mo old. He sleeps through the night 95% of the time. Last night, he started crying, but then I heard him hitting his head on the mattress which meant he was trying to go back to sleep. It's too wild hearing such blood curdling screams at night......after being asleep for an hour or 2 or 3.

Man, I'm tired! I live on caffiene, even late at night. I need caffeine just to make it to my bed, lol. LOL Try having teens who won’t get out of bed paired with little ones who won’t sleep at night!

Oh, wait, you weren't. But I'm right there with you!! I'll testify! My 16month old has yet to sleep the night - and there are nights that the 3 year old doesn't either. Today was one of those days - which might explain why I thought you were preaching. *L* nice to know there are others who are grateful for the "master" bath - and for very similar reasons. Sleep is good. Preach It!

My 5-year-old tried to walk in the other night at an (ahem) inconvenient time (thank goodness for door locks). Why can't they just sleep? I'm going to start a separate blog for just homeschooling stuff and I'm making a section with links to homeschool mommy blogs. I'm putting you on the list, if that's okay. I hear you, loud and clear!

My kids aren't even three yet and we're having issues. We are desperately trying to move Youngest upstairs so that she and her sister can share a room. But she hates it and cries (or screams, rather) at the top of her lungs until we "rescue" her from the horrible, awful, monster that is her adorable little toddler bed and reutrn her to the guest room. In the basement. Which is where she's been sleeping since she was an infant and she and I slept down there together becuase she had colic and we didn't want to disturb Oldest and Hubby. How one earth did you get Cailey and Emme to share a room?? THREE hours??? Bless your heart.

Our son started night terrors at the age 7. He'd wake up screaming like someone was murdering him and it would get worse when he couldn't open his bedroom door(it would seem he couldn't figure out how to open doors in this state). One time we were staying in a motel and in the middle of the night I heard this blood curdling scream. I thought someone must have broken in the main floor windo and was killing someone. No, it was just my dear son in the throes of a night terror. Thankfully these happen less and less but it happened enough to make my daughter terrified at night. She was sure he'd come in her room and scare the heck out of her. Those nights are so horrible – I remember them well.

I so enjoy it when my 18 year old decides he wants to stay up til 2am and sleep til 10-11am, I clean the kitchen, loudly, vaccum, loudly, talk, loudly, slam drawers and doors, loudly... It is so much fun considering that he sleeps on the living room couch most of the time. I consider this a mother's "right of passage". Just wait, your time will be coming...ENJOY IT!!!!!

And yes, it won't be long until they will never get out of bed. That's exactly where I am right now and it is driving me insane. Actually yelled at my 20 year old yesterday at noon to get her hind end out of that bed. I figure if I don't get a good nights sleep than why should she? ;o) For the future you might want to put some plastic underneath your sheet in case this happens again. I'm just sayin'!
