So Jackson has been a non sleeper for awhile now well lets be honest since birth! But after discussing some of his sleep issues with his pulmonologist such as snoring and grinding teeth and taking awhile to go to sleep and waking up in the middle of the night to which we would find him playing on the computer at 4am she decided it would be wise to do a sleep study to find out if it is indeed sleep apnea. His tonsils are also enlarged and touching which is a big indicator for sleep apnea! So Friday we spent the night at Tampa General Hospital where they conducted Jackson's sleep study! They got him all hooked up with a ton of wires and sensors all over him and we finally got him to sleep about 11pm. He slept on and off until they woke him at 6am. It was a rough night as Jackson is a mover and a shaker and we had to share a bed coupled with the fact that the nurse had to fix sensors all night by coming into our room about every 20 minutes and I was just plain exhausted on Saturday!! The nurse said she seems to think he has sleep apnea but we have to wait for final diagnosis from the doctor!! Glad its over but anxiously awaiting the next step for our Jackson!
