Toddler Sleep Issues Help
Hello there I have a 2 year old daughter that we can't get to sleep in her own bed.We try putting her back to bed every night but she just gets back up and comes into our bed. This goes on until we give in and let her sleep with us. Once with us she sleeps fine generally.She stays at her grandmothers house and sleeps on a bed in their room and sleeps through the night there.
Does sometimes suffer from night terrors and nightmares. Has developed febrile seizures (has had 4 in last 6 mths).She is quick to anger but very affectionate, likes to touch and cuddle and be carried. Will lash out, hit pull hair.yell and scream. Seems to catch colds easily.
Worries about monsters and witches (she has an older sister). Worries about bedroom door being shut. Comforted by cold milk. Would drink cold milk over eating. Not generally a not big eater.. eats when she feels like it and will no be convinced to eat if she doesn't want to. Tall and slim for age. Strong, very fair with blue eyes.

Thank you for your response.
I have Pulsatilla 30c. Which I tried her on before reading your post.
We have had success with this, she has finally sleeping soundly, with no nightmares last 3 nights. and only waking once in the night and being put back into her bed and her staying!
Should I switch to the 200 or do a longer course of the 30c?

Pulsatilla 30 will do. No need to go for Puls 200. Please stop the remedy. The remedy should be repeated when there is a significant relapse in her symptoms.

Thank you for your advice. I stopped remedy as advised, so she had a 3 day dose of Pulsatilla 30c as prescribed.
As soon as stopped she has had unsettled nights again.
As an aside, she has become more aggressive after taking the Pulsatilla. We have had a lot of biting, which we hadn't had for a long time. Scratching and lashing out. I don't know if this is coincidental or not.

Please give her a single dose of Chamomilla 30 and see whether things settle down.
