Kids

Because no one is truly around your daughter as much as you I guess we may not be able to grasp exactly how active she is compared to how you feel. On my perspective, my son is still like that and he is 7. He is excited, and many things to be excited about that we as we get older take for granted. There's nothing wrong with not taking a nap at all. Unless you are trying to get some down time during that hour or 2 that she would be sleeping. To get my son to take a nap a few years ago, I bought this little radio with soothing sounds of waterfalls, and wind, and that, I to however had to take a nap with him sometimes just to get him to go to sleep. Then their were days, where he didnt at all and just laid there talking away which now makes me chuckle as I type this to how funny that is. Good luck figuring out, you will find something, soothing music, sounds, what have you, don't believe because she is like this and doesn't take a nap that she has a problem, she is learning many new things, and it's part of having them grow up. Someday, and I say someday, you might wind up saying, what's wrong, why aren't you talking, when you were little you used to run around and be a social butterfly, what happened. Good Luck

I'm there with you. My talks to herself for like 2 hours, come up and down the stairs. It's a fight ever night. Thanks for the reply:)

Thank you for the response. I've even looked in to this like feng shui. Thing like her bedroom being about the kitchen where the stove is, the fire in the house.... I don't really get in to that stuff but I am tring everything. :)

I actually have and they seem to think it is common child like behavior.. I think not, my other daughter does not behave that way.. Thank for the reply

Please don't expect her to be just like her sister. All children are unique and should be cherished for how they are.

Yes I do know that they are all unique. However I do believe she has some sort of problem. Because it is just not normal for a child to not sleep. Doctors are just understanding the extent of it. Thanks for your response.

Well there you go, you're set.

Thanks I will look into that. It's probably something my mother would know about, she is into alternative healing.

Yes, I do believed was the energy that cause them to behalf as such.

I just wish I had the same energy so I could keep up with her. Thanks for the reply:)

Yea that is true. Your welcome

Most of these Docs probably don't even have kids, and if they do, there wives take care of them, so they don't understand. I personally have found better luck with the new female Doc, she has children and seems to understand more. We'll see how it goes.. Thanks for your reply:)

Thank You:)

To me this means this child will be very productive in life. Just keep her focused on the right things to do in life and follow Gods leading. God Bless

speaking of running right now as I write this she running circles around the house, as her sister lays on the floor. Thanks for the reply:)

I really don't think it's too much activity school is 3 days a week for 2 1/2 hours, dance 1/2 hr per week and soccer 1 hour per week. She just began all doing this stuff, before she was home with me all day long and besides playing she really had not extra activites. Her behavior then was the same as now. Thanks for the reply:)

Yes this is my daughter, going going goig, like the energizer bunny. we have tried the movie in bed thing, and believe it or not, she forces herself to stay awake to watch it and then will restart it and watch it again. Thanks for your replu:)

Thanks I will try those things. Actually she just became busy in Sept. Before that she had nothing to do, which we thought contributed to lack of sleep, but she is still behaving the same, we thought giving her more activities she would just crash at night....No luck with that. Thanks for the suggestions, I will try them:)

Thanks for the reply:)

she probably 8 to 9 hours at night. And she loves both soccer and dance, there both only 1x per week so it's not too much. Thank for your reply:)
