- Last December we saw the paediatrician at school. We have seen her twice before, and unless you specifically ask for another appointment, you only see her once a year as a matter of routine.
Now, last December J's sleep pattern was erratic and causing him to be ill.
A typical night would evolve as thus :-
8pm - Wind down for bed
9pm - Bed - (landing actually)
10pm -'La laaing' to himself, interspersed with hollers and giggles.
11pm - Crying as he has been told numerous times to go to sleep
12 midnight - Asleep
4am - 7am- Awake and chattering and singing ( well he knows a few words to certain nursery rhymes)
He had dark circles under his eyes and was lethargic most days.
Now, upon being told this, the supposed expert decreed that he didn't have a sleep problem.
Needless to say, she is not a professional I would trust to help.

I blog about my life with my child who has Autism, severe learning difficulties, poor communication, Epilepsy, and OCD. Born in 2002, he has become so much more than just a label. I write about our life ; the ups and downs, the triumphs, the joys, and anything in the news (about disabilities) that has caught my eye. He is the eldest of three. My youngest has Nystagmus, a mild speech disorder, and a very mild Sensory Processing Disorder. *Thank You For Stopping By*
