Stress not only makes you miserable, it wreaks havoc on your sleep. Develop some kind of pre-sleep ritual to break the connection between all the day's stress and bedtime. These rituals can be as short as 10 minutes or as long as an hour.Some people find relief in making a list of all the stressors of the day, along with a plan to deal with them this can act as "closure" to the day. Combining this with a period of relaxation perhaps by reading something light, meditating, aromatherapy, light stretching, or taking a hot bath can also help you get better sleep. And don't look at the clock! That "tick-tock" will just tick you off.

You don't have to feel guilty either, because I know the biggest reason for allowing it, is because you feel guilty. Don't. You need your sleep, otherwise you will become more and more grumpy and that's no good either. Like Gem said, put your foot down. The child will eventually fall in with what you want. You could also find out why your baby keeps coming to you. Is it just because it's nice to sleep with mommy? Or is there something in her room that scares her? Did something traumatic happen recently that she wants more security?
