Don't know what to do anymore besides begging GP for sleeping potion, either for ds or rest of family so we don't hear him...
He's always been a bad sleeper, but got better after we reduced milk at night. However, now he's a nightmare again, probably because I was away for a few nights?
Anyhow, he just starts screaming and there's nothing wrong with him because when we go in he's happy as. Tried letting him cry (scream) for 5 minutes at a time last night with the effect that he got hot & bothered and threw up at which point of course he had his way and came out of his bed as he needed to be changed.
It's definitely an attention thing as he's happy as if I finally fall asleep with him in his bed due to total exhaustion...
Bad side-effect, he wakes up his older sister (4.5) and then of course she's whacked for the day. Wasn't that bad during holidays but she's starting reception tomorrow so dreading moody zombie attacks...
At the moment I'm ready for straight jacket and mallett!
