Ok so finally got Q. Lady told my wife don't give more than 5 drops to kids under 5 years age. Now my wife wants me to ask you should we still give 10 or try with 5 drops ? Sorry the lady caused some Confusion - does it make any difference if drops given in one table spoon of water or more water or less?

Also
Please tell me if I can give 6ch to my other daughter who is only 7 months old but sleep habits are similar. Doesn't want to take naps. When she does take nap it's 30 minutes. She is teething one bottom tooth through and second will be through soon.

I'm guessing it could be in their genes since their Mom always had sleep issues.

Thank you

I can understand the mom's concern. Although 10 drops are fine, you can start off with 5 drops in some water, there is no fixed water quantity.

I believe you will need to go to 10 drops the next day.

For the 7 month old, absolutely not.

Ok I'll just start with 10. I'll tell my wife that you say 10 is fine

If you recommend anything for 7 months old please advise. She should be taking longer naps and sleep through but she is hardly taking one or two 30 minutes naps and wakes up couple of times a night at least

So we both are not getting much sleep and my wife is restless and getting really frustrated and stressed out

TThank you so much for your help

Are you feeding the young one at night.
 
fitness last decade
Yes. She wakes up and mom feeds her (strictly breastfed)
If mom doesn't feed then baby keeps crying and wakes elder sister up
And if elder one is not fed at night then she cries and wakes up the younger one
It's really challenging

For the older one, she must be on solids now, make sure her night diet consists some complex carbohydrates or enough fats to give her the feeling of fullness and can last all night. This with the remedy can work.
 
fitness last decade
Older one eats solids for last 1.5+ years.
We will try to improve her diet and start drops tonight and I'll keep you posted.

Sir I'll send you answers to the questions in a day or so.
I gave 10 drops of passiflora incarnata q every night to my daughter for two nights so far. No change at all. Exactly same as before giving medicine.
Sleeps between 7-730pm
Wakes up around 10pm
Then wakes up around 1am and comes to my room and sort of stays in a state of disturbed sleep in my opinion. Not sound deep sleep.
Tonight I will give the drops again and report back tomorrow like you instructed.
So far ZERO change in symptoms.

Thank you
 
rizdagr8 last decade
Increase the dose to 15 drops today.
 
fitness last decade
Thank you. Will do and keep you posted.
 
rizdagr8 last decade
Sir. Please don't mind what I am going to mention here.
I was talking to a friend regarding the passiflora and this forum and your help etc and he said that his daughter had exact issues and he was given a prescription of

CYPERPEDIUM 30 OR COFFEA CRUD 30

And it helped.
I thought I'd let you know and see if you will agree or disagree or just increase passiflora to 15 drops and report back before changing anything ?

Once again I thank you for reading my questions and replying so promptly.

Please advise.
Thanks
 
rizdagr8 last decade
You can try Coffea Crud if Passiflora fails. The only difference is that I am being extremely cautious but sometimes caution has to be disregarded if parents lives are becoming difficult.
 
fitness last decade
Ok so I'll continue passiflora until you advise otherwise
Thanks
I appreciate and prefer your caution for my daughter. Parents convenience is secondary; most important thing is that hopefully my daughter's sleep pattern becomes regular
 
rizdagr8 last decade
We will give Passiflora the chance to kick in in 3-5 days with progressively increasing the dose. No effect in 5 days and you can try Coffea.
 
fitness last decade
Update : gave 15 drops last night. Zero change. Same routine.
I'm not in some rush. You are the expert and I'm just keeping you posted so you can decide if and when dose needs to be changed.
Thanks
 
rizdagr8 last decade
Increase dose to 30 drops tonight.
 
fitness last decade
30 drops it is. Will report back tomorrow.
Once again I'm very thankful to you for your continued support.
God bless you
 
rizdagr8 last decade
Welcome.
 
fitness last decade
30 drops. She slept at 715ish
Was up at 913pm then 116am
drank milk and slept right after. Didn't appear to be as restless as she normally is I.e., twisting and turning all the time. Appeared to be slightly better in her sleep.
However waking up was same. Twice a night minimum.
Should I continue 30 drops for few more nights ?

(I have got cypripedium 30 just to be on the safe side as coffea was not available) so In case passiflora is not working then whenever you advise we can start other med or if passiflora starts to work then that's great.

Thanks
 
rizdagr8 last decade
Increase to 45 drops tonight.

Keep observing for any changes in behavior, eating/drinking, potty etc.
 
fitness last decade
Will increase to 45 and keep a close eye on behavior through the day and at night.

Thank you kindly
