Help! Our 2.5 yr old DD moved to her big girl bed over Memorial Day weekend (about 3 weeks ago). She loves the bed, and at first she said "I sleep by meself". A few nights later, she started getting scared by things in her room--the window, shadows, etc. Now, she will not go to sleep unless someone is laying with her. In fact, she screams if left alone. So, I have been staying with her until she dozes off, which takes about 2 hours.

Needless to say, no one is getting enough sleep. What have you all tried to successfully break this "fear" issue? She does not regularly get up, even if left alone. I am sure if we try to let her cry it out, she will get up more.

Thanks,
Kristie
