[quote=Anonymous]I'm exhausted just reading this thread--10 is too late. Talk to the teachers at preschool about alternative "quiet time" activities she can do while the others are napping. A possible alternative to Benadryl is melatonin--a supplement that's a synthetic version of the hormone that makes you feel sleepy at the end of the day. I use it myself to combat jetlag and have given it to my DS on days when I know he is tired but he is too wound up to let go and go to sleep. There have been some threads here about it--you can ask your ped about it if you have concerns. I usually aim to give DS 1 mg or less (cut a 3 mg tab in half and give him part of the half). [/quote]
