My daughter is 1. She’s slept every single night of her life in our bed. She has night terrors. So does my wife.
For the last 13 months, I’ve been the epitome of sleepless rage.
I can’t help you OP, I just wanted to bitch to someone who isn’t a woman because I’m surrounded by these absolutely vile creatures 24/7.

Metric? Seriously? Don't teach them this. There are 2 types of countries in this world. Those that have put men on the moon and those that use the metric system.
On topic... Let him sleep on the floor for another week or three... Then tell him the doctor may need to see him for a shot if it goes on after that.

This is what I slept on for years (tatami mats).

Wonder where your daughter got it from. Beware, she's going to learn plenty from her mom about how to be anxious, OCD, etc., if you don't get mom some sort of therapy. Mom can have her own issues, but it's critical to the health of the child that the negative behaviors not become a model for your child.
Since you're not getting laid at night, and you're likely going to work, just start sleeping in a different room.

You care too much. Put down some pillows and blankets and let him make a pallet in his bedroom. My rule is… if they ain’t screaming but they breathing, they good
That’s what I’m gonna start I think. He’s fine, he’ll eventually learn to get back in his bed. Just hard with the first, because you do love the fact he wants to be near you but gotta draw some boundary lines for the future.

This.

The future is now. I understand the sentiment, but the quicker the unwanted behavior is addressed, the easier it is to stop it.

Ours did the same thing. Age 2 we moved her to a bed because she started climbing out of crib.
Every night she would move all her bedding to the ground by door and would sleep which was fine. Slept all night like normal.
Then our friend gave us one of these toddler bed rails and she loved it and never got out of bed again. I think they need the security of being “in bed”
She used that until she moved into a bunk bed which also had a slight rail on it.

You slept on dirt floors.
You didn’t have beds in Mexico

I thought I was gonna be clingy with my girl but after being exhausted for the first 4 months of her life I finally adopted an attitude that makes me the totalitarian dad at my bedtime lol

The little baw will not stay in there, been almost two weeks. Bedtime now takes about an hour and a half because he keeps getting out. If we lock the door, he will lay down on the floor by his door and sleep like a dog.
I'm sure this will sound harsh, but I promise he will be okay if he sleeps on the floor. He has a comfy bed near him that he is choosing not to sleep in.
If you don't like this method, sit outside of his bedroom at bedtime. The SECOND he walks out of his room, pick him up (without any talking whatsoever), and put him back in his bed. Rinse, repeat. It may take a few days, but he will get the point.
You have to establish dominance and "out will" a toddler. Trust me on this. Establishing bedtime routines will save your sanity.

I get what you’re saying, but this can and will last longer than you want if you’re not careful.

Bedtime at 8 means you are in bed at 8, not starting the routine of brushing, etc. With me, anyway. With the ex-wife, they may not be in bed until 8:30.

Nevermind, I don't have a kid.

How the hell is no one acknowledging this?
My little guy isn't even a year and is about to have to be converted to no front rail because he can climb.
Same for my niece.
How did you make it that far?
