OK this is killing me- really hope it isn't the new routine. DS1 woke again at 3am (on the dot). Same eeeuuurrrghh noise. Went to see him and he was in spasm again. He was less tense than the other night and able to lie down so after taking him to the toilet and cuddling him for a bit I left him (he's more likely to go to sleep that way).
He went back to sleep at 6am and I dropped off shortly after (i have to stay awake whilst he's awake in case he gets up and wreaks havoc). At 6.30am ds2 came tripping into my room.
So yet another day begins at 3am. I am clinging to the hope that its because I have been mentioning school and he's excited (I told him school soon in the bath yesterday). I am now shutting up about it until Wednesday morning when he'll be presented with his t-shirt.
