Melatonin
Hi Everyone,
I have questions regarding Melatonin.......
I started giving my son Melatonin last week. I was actually working great. But for the last two days, he has been waking up really early, he was up at 5:30 today and didn't go back to sleep. He was fully awake............. Anyone had an experience like this? Does Melatonin have side effects that anyone has heard of?

I just posted about this last week .. Melatonin was reccomended to us by my son't neurologist and it works GREAT! He goes to sleep. He has no anxiety at night. He wakes up so so so much better! Is he getting more tired during the day? Possibly he is getting a restful night sleep and not needing to sleep any later. When my son was on meds, he wouldn't fall asleep until about 10:30 pm. With melatonin he was fast asleep by 8:30 or 9 - so he could wake up earlier and not have any change in his sleep time.
I have used Melatonin too. When it works, she sleeps all night. If it doesn't she wakes up in the middle of the night and takes a while to go back to sleep and then she doesn't want to get up for school. I still give it to her each night and just hope that she sleeps all night.
Sorry that doesn't really answer your question.
