Guest guest Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 Our son just turned 3 end of July. We tried the melatonin after his dx and he had what we thought was a reaction to it. So we stopped giving it to him. Recently after 10 days of sleeping 2 hours a night I decided to give another try. I have 3mg tablets that I crush and I give him 1/2 30 minutes before bed. The first week was great, he went to sleep no fighting, no whining, just curled and crashed. He slept for about 10 hours each night for a week straight. Now all of a sudden he will go to sleep great but between 2 and 3 am he is up for the day. If he goes back to sleep it is not until 7 am and he has to be woken up for school at 10. I know this pattern of sleep is not good for him. Am I giving him too much??? or not enough?? If anyone has any suggestions I would love to hear from you. We have our first DAN appt tomorrow in Kansas City and we are doing allergy testing and blood work as well. I am not sure how long it takes to get back any results. I feel so overwhelmed that I am not doing something right. He is non verbal so I never know what he is really trying to tell me. He takes super nuthera, and pro bio-gold both from kirkmans. We were gfcf but after 10 days my husband could not takes the awful behaviors and gave him the " crackers " back. One day later I believe he had a die-off. So we are starting over again. Sorry to ramble, just hoping for some suggestions. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
