Children can have just one type of problem or can have a mixture of problems.
It can be difficult to define exactly what is a sleep problem as what may be a problem for one family will not be for another. Also because each child's rate of development is so individual to them it can be difficult to give clear guidelines on when exactly one should become concerned about sleeping patterns. However if you feel you do have a difficulty with your child's sleeping pattern it may be worth having a chat with your GP or Public Health Nurse to check out your concerns. In trying to find the solution that works best for your child it is important that you identify their problem correctly so that you can use a suitable approach. These refer to everything your child associates with falling to sleep.
