Guest guest Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 He sounds like my son 7mths ago, until we discovered Epsom salts, now he will sleep 9-11hrs and not wake.We put a cup in as warm the as he can manage and leave him for 2mins. If he has not used it b4 might b good to start wth half a cup or less and build up to the cupSent from my iPhone My son is 4 years old and he will not sleep he usually wakes up around 2am and is wide awake and up until 5 am before he falls back to sleep.

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 We tried everything, melatonin, 5-htp, Zen, GABA, magnesium, epsom salt bath, diet change, exercise 2 hrs. before bed, corn starch in his bottle. Nothing worked after a year and a half of that we went to prescription sleep aides. He started to build up a tolerance and we'd have to give more to get and keep him to sleep. I was driven by how get him to stay asleep through the night. After about 2 years on the SCD diet I finally got them scoped. My kids needed more than what a diet and supplements could do. Even IVIG never helped his sleep. But steroids to address the sever gut issues is what has worked for us. No more prescription meds to sleep. I still give calming supplements at night but steroids is what worked here.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 It may be time to increase the dose of Melatonin.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 I've also read that nightime waking could be sign of adrenal insufficiency.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Oh - also want to mention that time-released melatonin, vs the regular, helped me to stay asleep better.
