And I hope he gets his sleeping under control, but both Shannie and I were night owls so it's our turn now.Jim Reevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12329621635433083054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2076321665033780818.post-45577181977623177442012-07-22T11:57:55.773-07:002012-07-22T11:57:55.773-07:00Seems like it's a good idea to wait until afte...Seems like it's a good idea to wait until after lunch to go since Jacob stays up late and the sleeps late like my son does. I always schedule his appointments in late afternoon if I can. Tuesday, however, we have an 8:30am appt with AL Rehab and we have to go when she can take us and she is extremely busy and this is an important meeting. When these early appts happen, my son will usually just stay up until after the appt. and then I get him something to eat and he goes to sleep for the rest of the day. (he is staying up all night and sleeping all day right now). Good luck! It is a pain and I'm sorry to say, but if Jacob is anything like my son it doesn't get better, but things can be managed creatively when you need to do certain things. At the end of the summer I use to have to keep my son up for 24 hours to get him back on schedule. He would be asleep between 5 and 7pm and then up in time for school the next morning. I would start a few days before school started to get him schedule. That's how I use to get him back on track for school. Crazy, I know!Kristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02129510013013288458noreply@blogger.com
