Hi all. I have a question for any and all of you, As some of you know, my daughter Lizzy Jo is 20 mo and has mild spastic CP. Hopefully this does not sound stupid or really dumb. But I was wondering...... When you are sleeping ... can or does the CP cause pain( tightening up....)? She use to sleep through the nite, but when she hit a year old, we have periods where she wakes up 3 or 4 times a nite. She has all of her teeth so it can't be that.... alot of the time its her cry, like shes in pain. We are in one of these modes now, so out of desperation to try to figure it out, the other nite gave her a dose of motrin before bed and she slept straight through, not wanting to drug this poor child all the time, this question acured to me. have asked her docs and therapist this before, but was not satisfied with answers, Doc said no( the same ones that it took 6 months to convience something was wrong) and the therapist said she didn't know. So I'm now asking the experts.(gigggle) Any ideas?? Thanks Cindy Bushnell and Lizzy Jo
