Hello my son has been wakening every night now for the last lot of weeks. He wakes screaming and very annoyed. He ranges from having to get up at say 4.30 and then back an hour or so later to just being able to peacify him in his bed by lying in with him. He got his diagnosis in September but I dont really know if this is related to Autism.
Please advise a tired mum.

Hi Lyn,
Just wanted to move this discussion over to the 'parents and carers' section to help other people see it.
You may also want to take a look at our factsheet on sleep issues, if you haven't already, to see if anything rings a bell there -
