Ever since they were unwell

[cstx89]

Hey - my twin boys (2.5yrs old) had a viral infection for nearly 1.5 weeks which then turned into an ear infection (finally got antibiotics). There sleeping pattern was horrendous at this time which is understandable.
Since then, they have running noses and coughs (not long started nursery so to be expected). One of the twins is sleeping right through like normally but one is constantly moaning in their sleep sometimes then waking up and refuses to sleep either though they are shattered.

Any tips for a tired mummy?

I am giving them saline drops and cough meds atm.

Thanks

Audio books?

Bright outdoors light in the morning as soon after waking as possible.

Depending on the ingredients of the cough syrup, could be sweeteners, colours or active ingredients. Stop it if you suspect this could be contributing.

Keep a diary of sleeping patterns and see your GP if the sleeping doesn't improve in a few weeks. I do suspect and hope that it will.
