So this is what sleep feels like....

So we have decided to put Drew on clonidine for sleep.  I just can't do it anymore.  He sleeps about 4-6 hours per night and naps are hit or miss.  He wakes up and is ready to go for the day.  I can't function on such little sleep.

The first day we tried the full dose that the doctor prescribed and was so tired he couldn't go to school the next day.  He could hardly stand up and he slept on and off for the next 2 days.  So we tried half of a dose with the doctor's permission.  He has slept 10 hours per night since.  He is going to bed willingly and staying in bed.  Naps are still hit and miss, but for now Drew is getting some sleep (and so am I!)
