or you can wash their bedding in lavender soap...i personally dont like putting oil on pillows as it can get into their eyes...you can however burn some oil in their room..just be sure to blow out the candle and remove it from the childs room before they go to bed....

if this fails theres nothing like some old fashioned tender loving care...lots of cuddles

Make sure he is well fed, make sure you got all the gases out (burbs) from the baby, and give him/her a bath. After the bath the baby will sleep sound asleep. You may need to give baby half an ounce to one ounce of really warm formula after the bath. Only a bit of warm formula will be needed, since you will first give baby a bottle before his or her bath. This works wonderfulliy.

Stop caffeine in sodas and chocolate by 4 or so in the afternoon. Stop big amounts of fluid to avoid a full bladder during the night.

No stimulating activity in the evening after dinner. Have a calm restful evening after baths.

I do not know your normal bedtime for your child but any child under about 12 should be be bed by 8:30. If they are still taking naps you could go to 9. But once they are in school, no naps and homework, they need to be in bed by 8:30.

If you include carbohydrates for dinner it will help to induce sleep.
