DS is 4. He has had bad dreams since starting school. Nothing we can pin him down on... it varies from dreams of school friends, to tv characters, to dragons.
It's nightly. Sometimes numerous times in the night. And, understandably so, he won't settle til one of us has been into him to say it's ok and tuck him back in.
I've tried talking to him about the dreams, asking him about them. Giving him a stuffed toy to protect him. Waking him slightly before I go to bed to reset his sleep pattern.
I don't know what more I can do. He gets so distraught.
We are obviously suffering too. Last night it was 4 and 5am nightmares so we are losing sleep too.
Any suggestions?
