[QUOTE="StressedM0mma, post: 504764, member: 13204"] Thank you everyone. We got back from IOP about an hour ago. It went pretty well. She didn't talk much during family therapy, and was throwing a little bit of an attitude, but she was nervous. On the way home she really opened up to me about some things. I was really proud of her for sharing (and made sure she knew this!) She tends to be very private/secretive. So her tell me things was a big moment. I am actually looking forward to the sleep study and the blood results. It may not give the answers we want, but it will let her know we take her seriously, and that we are trying to figure this out, and will help ruling some things out hopefully. I think her pediatrician. is finally taking me seriously. He actually mentioned the sleep study before I could demand it. Also, he was saying that if it continues into spring without letting up, and the study and blood work shows nothing that we would discuss adding a stimulant possibly to help her wake in the morning. That is a ways off, but it seems the Dr. is looking at options. The main thing is that difficult child is beginning to believe that we are on her side on this. It was a very busy day, and I am wiped. But, difficult child's birthday is Saturday and she asked me to make her some cupcakes to take in for lunch with her friends. So, I still need to ice them before I can pass out. And, I have to be up extra early because I have to drive 2 and a half hours south to pick up a litter of puppies that the rescue I volunteer for are getting. The area they are coming from is a high kill shelter. So I need to leave the house at about 6am. UGH [/QUOTE]
