December 15, 2006, Newsletter Issue #98: Sleep Disorders in Children
Tip of the Week
Sleep problems and sleep disorders in children range from nightmares to night terrors to bedwetting.
Examples of sleep disorders in children can include:
- Frequent awakening during the night
- Talking during sleep
- Difficulty falling asleep
- Waking up crying
- Feeling sleepy during the day
- Nightmares
- Night terrors
- Bedwetting
- Teeth grinding and clenching
- Waking early
Many childhood sleep problems are simply related to poor sleep habits or to anxiety about going to bed and falling asleep. To help minimize common sleep problems, a parent should develop consistent bedtime and regular bedtime and sleep routines for children. Help can be sought at a sleep clinic if you think your child has a more serious sleep disorder.
