Is there anything I can do to help my child sleep during the awakening?

I recognize how challenging it can be when your child is keeping everyone up all night and so, for short term use, I am fine with people occasionally using melatonin to help you get past that phase. In North America the antihistamine Benadryl contains diphenhydramine which can cause drowsiness and can help you fall asleep and I am ok with that for occasional use as well. Once they are sleeping well I recommend that you discontinue. nnNOTE: I am aware that in some countries Benadryl has other ingredients so always check the label or consult with a physician before using.
