I'm so sorry you have to go through this. I hope you guys can reach some kind of arrangement where you can get enough sleep to not be zombies.
I know that there's no tried and true method and even if you do manage to get a schedule down that you can live with, it tends to shift and change with the toddler.
Every time I think we have it down, Owen changes and decides he doesn't want to sleep a certain way or not at all and that is the worst.
There have been a few times when we just shut him up in his room with a snuggle pillow and blanket on the floor and leave him to his own devices. He does eventually give up and fall asleep. But it's hellish to go through.
