re: sleep problems in CAH babies Jan. 14th, 2008 6:03pm
My daughter is 14 months old and she did the same thing around 11 months old. I wouldn't give her food and I got to the point where I started using Johnson's sleep lotion and body wash. I let her cry it out and did that, she started sleeping wonderfully. I won't give her any food or anything past a certain time because I feel that it is a habit she will continue to have if I continue to do it for her. I know that I have read in most cases kids will get used to waking up to get a glass of water and they'll continue to do it, unless you try to change that habit.
But I do believe that my daughter is affected by the medicine because I was the same way when I was a baby. I hardly took naps and I didn't sleep very long. Now on the other hand, I sleep as much as I can because I am always tired.
