I don't think the black out shade helps eithier. It puts me to sleep but not Ryan... We try to stick to a strict bedtime schedule too but we haven't tried the other things yet. Thanks for the suggestions, we will have to test some of them out.Jennifer Eganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14225463186127583397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2159424334712756763.post-61247130674889120572011-01-11T14:53:38.968-08:002011-01-11T14:53:38.968-08:00Meletonin worked some for us, it has gotten to the...Meletonin worked some for us, it has gotten to the point now that Emma's doctor put her on a perscription (Trazadone) because she is concerned about her lack of REM sleep. Tonight will be our first night. <br />We do have a very structured bedtime routine that does not change. Meds,bath, massage (her back is her favorite) 3stories a snuggle and lights out. <br />We have the black out shade which I have no idea why! It was expensive and does NOTHING! <br />2 other things that have really helped Em are a white noise machine and a weighted blanket. Before we had those it was pure insanity-now it still insanity but with some breaks!<br />Good luck!Lindsay Bartholomewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03730116462566360112noreply@blogger.com
