So DS2 had his paed appointment today...

[5intheEgg]

We got melatonin to help with his sleep issues . They are in tablet form though, so not sure how easy it is going to be to give it to him, he has never had a tablet and we are not allowed to crush it either.

Paed thinks that the vomiting is being caused by nasal dripping, so have been given some saline drops to "cleanse" his nostrils with before bed, should be fun

And finally......DS2 more than likely has dyspraxia as well . Paed said he is sure he has, just needs DS2's OT to "confirm" it. HE is writting OT a letter to be sent ASAP so will hopefully be there beginning of school.

I love DS2's new Paed, he is from GOSH and is just the loveliest man, so helpful and nice.

The tablet went down well, but had to hide it in yoghurt. Luckily he is a yoghurt feind, so no problems there. So far he hasn't woke up, but the night is still young.

The nasal drops were a nightmare though. Lots of screaming, yelling and kicking

Glad it went well. We are going to start melatonin too.

Well done 5 for getting the tablet in to your DS, heres hoping you get a good nights sleep.

ben has his in yoghurt too, if its slow release melatonin only reason they say not to crush it is then it is just normal not slow release so no harm just not likely to keep them asleep if thats the problem. good luck with melatonin x
