During the late afternoon and evening try to make sure she is always awake. Take her for a walk, play games indoor (I know it's hard work) play tea party etc, anything that keeps her excited. I reccomend taking her out to park, good fresh air, which will make her exhausted. (but do make sure she eats though) Then in evening at 8.00pm give her a bubbly bath. (before she falls asleep) and then massage her with body oil. Hopefully she will be so worn out from her outing and playing games so probably she wont wake up during the night. good luck by isabel

Has this only been happening since Christmas? Maybe now that she is back at school she may be more tired out and sleep longer. It's difficult if she's not disturbing you. I assume you only found this out when she was absolutely shattered during the day? Let's hope it just phase she's going through! by soosy

Sorry I missed these answers I don't seem to get any notifications anymore (after complaining I got loads on the phone app! ) It's been since the clock changed really Susie. I have subliminally put in her head that 6YO's need to sleep better because their brains are working so much harder than 5YO's and she has really latched onto that! Now if we can just shake her night time coughing we may get somewhere! by cakeshaped

sim needs help with my daughter often wakes up several times a night asking for water, is there any solution to help her sleep through the night?

You have my sympathies. If you find out please let me know too. We do put a beaker full of water, with a lid, next to the bed so my son can get his own water in the night. When he shouts for it, I just go in and tell him where it is. I think he know realises he has to find it himself. by soosy

will try telling her to get the water first rather than giving it to her straightaway, hopefully bit by bit she'll start helping herself without calling for help by sim

Do you have a night light? My eldest stopped calling out at night when we left a small plug in night light on so in the hall outside his room so he could see where his water, comforter etc was but it didn't keep him awake. Helps him with finding the toilet in the night too. by soosy

she has a small light yes though maybe we could leave the hall light on so she has a bit more light, thanks by sim

If it's any consolation, my 5 yo now sleeps very well (although now I've put that in writing he will be awake tonight)! by soosy
