putting ds on a reducing dose anyway (he was only on 1mg/day) but it really hasn't worked.

the crunch came saturday night he had half a mg before bed (as instructed to help him sleep) well he woke up at 11.30 screaming I think he'd had a nightmare????

well then he wouldn't stop for over an hour, even with a lot of cuddling, rocking, chuggington, night garden etc. eventually he carmed down enough for me to sit down at least, but didn't go to sleep until 4!!!
So spoke to NHS Direct's Dr who advised us to cut it down slowly so he's now on half a mg/ day (nne at night) and Shock apart from waking up to have a position change he slept from 9-8.30! probably because he was so tired from the night before but still we both got some well needed sleep!
