DS is 19 months and has always been an awful sleeper. But I'm beginning to think there might be a medical problem behind it. Before I make a fool of myself at the GP, I wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts.
He cries, whimpers and moans when he's asleep, tossing and turning. He comes into our bed when he's woken up really distressed (every night) but then his sleep is disturbed for the rest of the night. Last night I tried counting the number of times I soothed him back to quiet sleep and it was between 20 and 30. Which tbh is a killer for me. He never wakes up from sleeping happy, he's crying before he surfaces up. If he has calpol or neurofen at bedtime for teething, he will sleep 12 hours without a whimper!
He's happy and cheery during the day
