[quote=Anonymous]What is the bedtime routine like? Is it possible that he needs to go to sleep earlier? Might melatonin help? Alternately, could he do something relaxing while you get his sibling(s) to bed and then have a little quality time with you? Does he need a cool night light/projector? A white noise machine (or something that plays nature sounds)? Are there any stressful evening tasks that could be shifted to the morning, either for him or for you? Are there things you're hoping to get done after he goes to sleep that are making you feel stress about getting him to bed, and transmitting that stress to him? If so, is there a way to get you the time you need (either for chores or for things you like to do) at a different time so you aren't feeling such pressure about getting him to bed? It sounds miserable and I am so sorry.[/quote]
