2 year old bedtime drama

[B81292]

Darcey has never really been a good sleeper waking in the night etc. Since the arrival of her new sister she's been a little unsettled as expected however she's recently decided she hates bedtime and screams for hours like she's being murdered . We put her in a big girl bed and this worked for a few days she loved bedtime and slept well. But past couple of nights she's started to scream again . Normally daddy puts her to bed but last night he was out so maybe this was why she was bad? She screamed for an hour in the end I left her to it as I made her worse coming in . Then awake at least 3 other occasions doing the same . Sorry for rambling but are there any solutions to this !!?

Tried a nightlight, music , story tapes, sitting while she falls asleep ( wakes bolt upright if she hears me creep away) , sleeping in her bed , her in my bed , coming in to reassure and nothing seems to make a difference

Did you find a solution to this?? My 2.5 yr old has started doing this (I’m overdue so about to pop!)
