Hi ladies.... Over the last 6months my 8year old daughter has started waking 30mins after going to sleep, crying & upset.... she settles within 10mins & usually goes back off for the night but it was maybe once a week it's now getting a lot more?
Just wondered if anyone else has had this problem & wondered if anyone can give me some advice on how to help her?
Thanks ??

Could there be a problem at school? Or with her friendships?

It might be that she is unsettled because she is thinking about something and worrying as she goes to sleep.

What does she say about her wakenings? Does she feel unwell, or is she still 'asleep' - my 7-yo sometimes wakes about 10pm, crying and unsettled but has no recollection of it the next day? I find it happens when she is very tired or has been ill. We often get it towards the end of term, as she's just plumb tuckered out.

chlorophorm as in the anaesthetic? I assume you are being facetious Hmm
