Our son sleeps with us in our bed and then we transition him to his crib when he

falls asleep. We also put down a thin blanket in his crib and that makes it

soft enough for him to sleep more comfortably. I am not too worried about SIDS

anymore since he's almost 9 mths and can lift himself up pretty well. We dress

him lightly and sometimes w/o a blanket, depending on the weather. Our DPT

said, " What is cold for you is comfortable for him " .

We go by that standard when dressing him.

Good luck!

Despite my prior email to the group about starting one thing at a time, I'm

using the Green Dragon Botanical encapsulations that have everything in them - I

am starting at the entry level dose - plan to go up slowly. I'm surprised to

feel more clear headed, perhaps it's not those, as I just started Monday, but

something else I'm doing that I'm not taking into account.

Of course you have heard start slow.

For sleep I use 2 melatonin (there are chewables) before bed. Also, try and

epsom salts bath before bed - I even take magnesium (2) and calm powder

during the day.

How much did you start with?

Subject: [ ] More energy starting core protocol?

I have finally been able to start the core protocol (was having issues with

antibiotics and had to let things settle down first). I haven't had a good

night's sleep since. Well, my sleep feels more restful, but there's not a

lot of it. I had been taking eleuthro (2 drops) for 2 days, but I've cut

that out and my sleep has not improved.

Generally speaking my brain feels clearer and I have more energy in

general... I am wondering if anyone else experienced this when first

starting the core protocol, or...?

Thansk!

My grandson in the past month bed at 9:00 p.m. 10:00 p.m. wakes up at 2:00 a.m.

stays awake til 5-5:30a.m. then awake a 8:30 a.m. This isn`t enough sleep for a

child his age last nite he stayed overnite didn`t go to sleep til 11:00 p.m.

Not eating one of the reasons(I think due to to tired to sleep)he may sleep 1

night because he is so exhausted.

Dr. Goldberg says take 2 benadryl before bed. he also takes 1/4 tab. tenex.

The only recent changes has been on prozac for 1 1/2 months (just inc. dose) &

changed to acyclovir to valtrex.

Has anyone have these sleep & eating problems with their child?

Thanks

Carole,

This sleep stuff is hard. We would have some issues when we made a med

change. Also occasional bedwetting would sometimes happen with a med change

too. Usually this stuff was short lived, but if it doesn't stop soon call

Dr. G again.

The change in antivirals now are causing die off " AGAIN " !!!

..I appreciate your insight. May I ask you or anyone who has been through this

with their child. When does this die off ever comes to an end? This seems to be

on going with this little boy.

Thanks

This is a major problem with my son. I am awake right now at 4:44 am because he

woke up at 3:00am. He will probably go back to bed at 5:30am and stay there

until 8:30 as well. About 2 months ago, he was staying up all night (this went

on for 2 weeks). For my son, he has major bowel issues. I have been easing up on

the miralax and milk of mag so that is why he is awake tonight. If possible, see

if you can get his gut x-rayed and see if he is constipated. Just a thought.

 

All the best,

 

Jill

Our 10 year old son started Valtrex 3 months ago. We had a couple of sleep

issues in the last month, where he goes to bed at 9-10 pm like normal, but then

wakes up at 11pm. We just put him back to bed and he goes to sleep, but then

wakes up again at 2 or 3 a.m. and stays up until 5:00-5:30a.m. Then sleeps until

6:30 or 7am and is up for the rest of the day.

He isn't crying or acting ill. Just awake...and a little irritable/anxious.

The majority of kids with autism need a prescription anti fungal while using

valtrex. A symptom of yeast is night wakings, silly giggly behavior. You can

look at his tongue to see if it's white.  Ask your doc for a prescription for

diflucan it works great.
