Today, my 3 year old woke up at 2 am and refused to go back to sleep unless she could sleep with her father and me. Normally we would have said no, but both of us being so tired, we said yes. She slowly kicked me out of my side of the bed and now I have to sleep on the couch. FML

OP here. She has recently been having nightmares and keeping us up half the night. We were both exhausted so we said fine. I got up to go pee and when I came back, she had thrown my pillow on the floor and completely took over my side of the bed. If I moved her, she would've started screaming again and I just wanted sleep. I let her father deal with her at that point! I did sleep well for the rest of the night :)

It's clear who wears the pants in this family . . . and they come from Gap Kids.

OP, I'm sure you got better sleep than your hubby did by sleeping on the couch. Sleeping with a three year old isn't exactly restful!

Woo hoo... normally the man gets kicked out of bed (or at least the sheets stolen and he gets 10% of the bed). It is a small victory for the woman to have her territory taken.

Damn what's with all the comments saying she needs to grow a pair? She didn't move her because she didn't WANT to wake her.

Every parent goes through it... For heaven sakes, she is a 3 year old little girl who had night terrors. I bed share with my 12 month old, she can be handful, but none the less if I didn't, I wouldn't get any sleep period.

Stop being weak with your boundaries, you are setting precedents that will compound your problems.. It. Is hard to do, I know. But. You have to establish routines that you are willing to live with for many, many years. Good luck.

Sounds identical to a night in my house with my 2 year old son lol. He kicked me out of bed the other night and I slept on the couch... better than upsetting him and his feet in my back
