Decide youll either stick with putting her back or not. If not thats fine but just make it easy on yourself and make her bed in your room and put her there when she comes in. Youll all get sleep.
Mine did this too but now at 5 goes to bed at 7 and sleeps all night. Even goes to toilet alone and back into own bed. Started being a better sleeper around three and a half.

My 2yr old did this for a few weeks about a month ago. I ended up putting him in bed with me till he went to sleep and then moved him to his own bed.

I would try lying down with her until she falls back to sleep.

You can try all of the suggested thing. I know what it's like and at the end of the day hubby needs to step up. You didn't make the kids on your own so you shouldn't have to parent them on your own. Tell him he has to get up to her every second night! I had this exact same problem with my husband and it took for me to have a mental breakdown and end up at a psychologist for him to step up but we're getting there slowly now!
