dieseldog, it is a good thing to stay with her in the bed until she falls asleep, it is normal, look at it as one of those bonding moments between you and your child... it's a very enjoyable thing to do.. well to me, that's how i look at it.. why, my daughter is 6 now but i still tuck her in during bedtime, and i do not leave her side until she falls asleep.. i enjoy watching her sleep..
