[quote=Anonymous]Has anybody had a sleep study done on their young child?  My DD is 4 and I think we need to do a sleep study.  We have seen an ENT about getting her tonsils out but it was inconclusive as to whether or not we needed to go ahead with the surgery.  Her tonsils are HUGE and she snores a lot while sleeping.  I took a short video of her sleeping to share with the ENT and they didn't see any sleep apnea during that video.  I am worried about her not getting enough oxygen while she is sleeping and not getting good quality sleep.

She is grumpy all the time and says she is tired a lot.  She goes to bed around 9ish and wakes up at 7ish and still takes a 2 hour nap during the day.  Maybe this is just her personality and mood but if there is a chance we could improve her sleep and her attitude I am willing to do anything.  However having tonsil surgery is a big deal and I want to make sure we are covering all our bases before we do the surgery.

Any suggestions on where to get a sleep study? Or any suggestions about getting tonsil surgery on a young child?  [/quote]
