[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is she on a schedule with built in afternoon quiet time (regardless of whether or not she naps). Quiet time happens in the same place (preferably her room) in an organized, dark, calm setting that is soothing. Think Maria Montessori. Toys put away, nice cozy bed, maybe a little basket of books for her to flip through, a few favorite stuffies on the bed, soothing sound machine on low. 2 hrs after lunch. 13 hrs of awake time sounds like A LOT of stimulation. She could be overwhelmed. [/quote] Yeah. I didn't even really get into her sleep issues but she's never slept. After lunch we read stories and she knows she has to sit in her room for quiet time. She can get in and out of bed. Low lighting, white noise. She screams at the door the entire time. Once or twice a week she'll pass out on the floor. I know she's chronically underslept but the fact that she's sleeping at night is HUGE for us. [/quote] It’s the sleep. Hire a sleep consultant ASAP. When (most) kids get over tired chronically, they not only act like terrible humans but they CANNOT wind down to fall asleep properly. Sounds like your kid at nap time. Sleep sleep sleep! Spend the money and good luck![/quote]
