Marla: Gus is 7 and while he had a lot of sleep disturbances when he was younger, in general, he’s pretty consistent. Goes to sleep at the same time and usually wakes up between 5 and 6 no matter what. This is very odd for him. We do have a noise machine for him. He seems to have the idea in his head that his alarm is going off for some odd reason. One other thing I considered is that he may need more exercise in the late afternoon/evening. I’ll keep you posted on how this plays out! Thanks for the suggestions!
