Good Day. I am at WITS END! My daugter is 5 years old this year coming September.Since birth she has not been a good sleeper. Two weeks ago she had a Tonsillectomy, Adenoidectomy and Grommets put in her ears. The ENTexamined her the day before and said she immediately had to go in as her adenoids where enlarged and had fluid in her ears. I thought YEAH i have found the answers i was looking for. The first week after her op she was fine slept well (i think it was the pain medication). Amy gets taken to bed at 20h00 and on a good night takes half an hour to fall asleep and on a good night she takes an hour to fall asleep. She is not very interested in TV but if she does watch she watches about half an hour at night. We take a bath together and then it is time to relax. The problem i am facing is that if she gets taken to be anything between 19h00 and 20h00 she wakes up during the night (up to 4 times) i can take her back to her room and she falls asleep within minutes. And when she goes to be between 20h30 and 21h00 she still wakes up between 2 and 3 times. How do i break this habit without being cruel. I am honest to say that i am not very patient and i am now at that point where i feel something is wrong with her. She is a very impulsive child and can never wait her turn....always talking away. I invested in a reward chart but this does not intrigue her at all. If i tell her i will take away a star she tells me i can take one. If i tell her if she sleeps in her own bed she will get a surprise she tells me she does not want one. Leaving her to cry it out usually leads to her making herself sick and waking up the whole neighborhood. PLEASE HELP!!
Ok I have gone through your Complaint. Ya this is common with these child Chat Doctor.  I think u should try the couple of things. 1. Don't allow her to sleep during day2. Don't make her watch horror on TV3. it's better to make her sleep with you4. Use Melatonin syrup at night., so that she can have a good sleep, it comes by various names like syrup Noctua.  Use 3ml at night
