Can you believe.....

My two year old still don’t go sleep on her own I have to be in the room for her to go sleep, if I leave she get up and messes about and even wakes her baby sister up just so I come back in.
I’ve tried sitting just outside her room and going in and out every so often I’m running out of ideas.
Her baby sister who is 8 months sleeps so much better but if I’m in the room she fights sleep so you can imagine.
It is partly my own fault I held her a lot when she was a baby she was my first and I just wanted to be with her but know I’m suffering and so is she..,...
Any advice?

Even at that age you may be able to convince your two year old that she needs to be a big girl and set a good example for the baby. If you approach her that way, there is at least some chance of success.

It is so soooo easy to spoil the first one! But it is not too late to teach her. You just have to find the right approach.

@justbob I’ve tried this many times with her. But I still always say it
