[tri-med] Re: Sleeping Issues

We have the opposite problem. Hannah sleeps WAY too soundly!!! I'm =
always
checking for breathing because she is usually so quiet when she sleeps.=20

As a matter of fact, she scared the beegeebies out of me a bit ago! =
We're
having waves of thunderstorms right now. We had the AC people out =
yesterday
as the AC wasn't working right. They fixed it and then we closed window =
over
her crib but it wasn't closed quite all the way and wasn't latched. This
evening Zach crawled under the crib to get to the window and, in doing =
so,
jiggled a long narrow poster that was on the top of the shutter frame. =
(Her
crib wasn't there when the poster was put up there.) I was watching him =
on
the monitor and saw something fall on top of her! The poster landed long
ways right on top of a sleeping Hannah. It looked like a plank on top of
her! Fortunately it's fairly light weight but I know I'd notice if it =
fell
on me. She didn't even flinch! We tried to purposely wake her up but no
luck... she was out. Now, 30 minutes later, she's starting to wake up. =
If
she follows her pattern she will be wide-eyed for about an hour and then =
go
back to sleep.=20

The poster is NOT going back up. We will firmly attach it to a wall in =
her
new room.

A lot of our kids have sleep apnea, and this tends to make them either=20

parents who are overtired (that would be us!).  You may want to invest =
