[QUOTE="mamabear01, post: 275923, member: 7387"] Hoboy.... My son, before he was identified with AS did not sleep for 11 yrs. I was miserable. He was miserable. We both never slept. We had so many tardy's at school during those years and I never knew a child could have a sleep disorder. I always thought only adults had sleep disorders. Because of me not understanding, and not realizing it was a neuro disorder I blamed myself. You know, I'm not being strict enough. I do not provide enough routine, I am just a bad mom. Not until I introduced Melatonin. It was a miracle!!!!! It's natural, it's over the counter, and it's safe. I gave my kids 3 mgs a night they were older 7-10 yrs. I don't know how old your child is, or can even swallow a pill but you can find melatonin at your local GMC or even longs drugs. Some young kids do well with lower doses and there is a liquid form available. My god once I introduced this I realized it wasn't me. And I spent many a night sleeping on my childrens floor or having them sleep with us. In fact before melatonin they slept with us for two years and my husband had to put a twin mattress to sleep on on the ground because of my boys lololol. Anyway I would look into it. Seriously. I was shocked on how well it worked. [/QUOTE]
