Going through 18 month sleep regression. My 18 month old is going down with difficulty but going down none the less between 7:30-8pm. Once he wakes up (sometimes 10 pm sometimes 3am) he will not go back to sleep in his crib at all. He will sleep on me in the rocking chair no issue all night long if I let him but as soon as I go to put him in the crib again he loses it. He literally in his drowsiness will point toward the rocking chair. If I bring him to bed with my wife and I and our 9 week old he freaks out. He will however sleep next to me in the guest bedroom with no
Issue. I’m starting to think it could be the sound machines in his an our room? Maybe it’s just attachment but I’m not sure and we can’t sustain this. Any advice?
18 month old only sleeps with me in guest bedroom.

You’re being held hostage by an 18-month-old sleep tyrant and he knows exactly where his power lies. Take back the night by breaking the rocking chair habit cold turkey and reconditioning sleep in his crib with calm consistency not comfort chaos.
There’s a whole method about getting kids to sleep, basically you are on for a couple awful nights but then it’s ok
So sleep with him in the guest room, what’s the issue?
