My son is having terrible sleep problems and has got much worse in the past few months. We have been toth eGP who advised that we doube his melatonin but this seems to have made him worse.
We will usually go to sllep for about half and hour and then wake screaming- it then takes 2 hours to settle him again, I understand that these may be night terrors but they are getting harder and harder to cope with. Im knackered,exhausted and im finding this all so hard to cope with at the moment. Thank god for my dp who is far more patient than me, I almost lost it last night and ended up sobbing my heart out.
I just wondered if anyone had experienced sleep problems in any kind or anything that sounds similiar to this. I dread evenings and putting ds to bed every night becuase i know what a battle its going to be.
