My 2.5 year old daughter has suddenly developed a massive fear of the dark.Since birth she has always slept in pitch black with the door closed and always been content to do so. She is convinced there are monsters etc in her bedroom and tonight even wet herself when I took her to her room for bed. She now insists on the door being open and a light on in the hall and sometimes during the night nothing will calm her dowm until She has got into bed with us. Im thinking of buying a candleoo nightlight, does anyone have one or could anyone recommend any strategies to deal with her anxieties. Its heartbreaking to see her so scared.
