It was 2 o'clock in the morning today when I heard Kyra cry through the baby monitor, and she kept insisting "DON'T FOLLOW ME! DON'T FOLLOW ME!" Not long later, I heard her open her bedroom door (she and Maia share a room btw), ran to my room crying.....sobbing non stop....
Well, I thought she wet her bed or was having nose bleed (she sometimes get it, very much like her dad), but after a few words with her, i realized she was having a nightmare. She looked very frightened! And fyi, I am a little surprised coz this could be the very 1st time she woke up crying and running to our room! It gotta be something scary? hehe...:P Poor babe....
Immediately and spontaneously, she climbed up my pretty high bed, and "I wanna sleep here".
It would be cruel to turn her down in this case.....so I hugged her to sleep......
It is a very nice feeling...hehe....to hug her to sleep.....coz she's truly not the type that lets you hug her to sleep....she hates it.... :D (Very much the opposite of her little sister who's huggy wuggy).
It makes me wonder....till now.....what possibly could the nightmare be?
"DON'T FOLLOW ME!"??? Hmmmm......interesting.....
So, as I tucked them in an hour ago, she smiled sheepishly and asked if she could sleep in my bedroom.....of course I declined.....coz I know if I let that become a habit, I might never get them off our bed anytime soon....... yeah, I know of my mum's friend whose 10year old daughter, is still co-sleeping with them! IMAGINE THAT!!! :O
So parents, if you'd like your toddlers to sleep in their own bedroom, you need discipline (on ur side) and a deaf ear sometimes..... a cosy and fun bedroom for your child helps too! I know that coz both of them really love their own room... :D
