Before my daughter was taking her maintenance medicine for her epileptic seizures she rarely sleep full eight hours. She always wake up in the middle of the night when I am in the middle of my sweet dreams in wonderland.
Her poor sleeping habits that time was really frustrating, we were both suffering real bad to the point that I was thinking I should give her some sleeping pills to knock her off so I can sleep soundly. I know I’m not alone in this predicament, some moms out there would like to use sleep aids with their kids.
But of course as parents we want our kids to be “drug” dependent. So instead of resorting to medications I tried doing some fun physical activities with her but its always a failure. Its amazing how how kids don’t ever tire-out no matter what physical activities you do with them. Instead of wearing them out its the other way around.
I’m glad her neuro discovered this and gave medications immediately because that also helped with her sleeping habits. She can now sleep full 8 hours.
