    Tigz, go to the gambling board and you want the step one sticky, 'introductory guide and faq'. That will take a while to plough through but then have a mooch round on that board at the other stickies for more info ;):D

    I've never heard you mention DS having problems at bedtime til recently? Has something happened to trigger it, it must be so draining for you.

    I know you went to Butlins or somewhere like that last year, are you going again coz just wanted to remind you about the £9.50 hol tokens starting today incase you haven't already seen.

    Hey,sorry DS isn't settling at night, hope it's only temp and that nothing is worrying him xxxx

    Ooh yes the sun hols start today, fair few dates avail, but not sure which are school hols, we don't need to worry about that until after Sept....eek!!!!

    You can def get a fab hol for under £100. I can recommend Ruda Bay in Croyde, North Devon.

    I'm just off to update my diary....x

    Thank you all for the replies :D Ds has always loved going to bed and I never had a problem with it at all until about 6 months ago and its been getting gradually worse; first he's play in bed with a toy for a few minutes which has gradually ended up beingabout an hour :eek: Recently I've tried to be firmer about settling down and going to sleep but he's getting worse rather than better :o I do let him play for a bit in bed but not too long. Tbh, he's not afraid of going to sleep its more about him thinking he's in charge and not listening to me or respecting me. Its gonna be a big battle and its exhausting but I will win this one ;):D
