Human babies are not designed to sleep through the night anyway, especially because they to need
eliminate several times a night or feed if they're little (the frequency depends on the age of the baby).
This is what helped: We found a functional medicine doctor who understood alternative healing methods; the family member was allergic to a number of foods, including most grains and milk; we elevated the bed, so that the head was about six inches higher than the foot; tight restrictive clothing, especially around the waist, gave way to sweat pants with more comfort; greasy funk foods, alchohol, food colorings, flavorings, food additives, all were
eliminated — in favor of preparing real food; food was eaten
several hours before bed
time with no big late
night meals.
