Poor sleep hygiene: A careful evaluation of the quality and duration of sleep is necessary to evaluate the reason for your son's symptoms. An uncontrolled respiratory problem or non physiologic sleep may play a role. Overall health will need to be evaluated for a more concrete answer to your question. www.healthtap.com/dr-nnebe.

My 3 year old son cries a lot, especially when I pick him up from school. I first thought it might be because he is hungry and sometimes he didn't sleep at school so he is tired. It's a truly wonderful school and he loves it there. Why is he crying?

I'm exhausted but can't sleep. For the past 8 days I've only slept 3-4 hours per night, only 1-1.5 hours at a time. I'm so tired I can't keep my eyes open. I tried relaxation and meds. But I'm still wide awake just laying there with my eyes closed.
