Homemade tea to help LO sleep?

DS has been having trouble sleeping and we suspect it's because of the meds he has been taking.  He has very severe EOE and has been taking a steroid for it.  I am wondering if we can make him some chamomile tea or even that sleepy time tea to help him.  Is it safe?  I am calling pediatrician tomorrow but wondering now...

Re: Homemade tea to help LO sleep?

  • Great question... We give DS Teavana from time to time, but I'd definitely check with your doctor before you give it on a regular basis.  Good luck!

  • My DD is younger (28mo) and likes to drink my tea on occasion.  I don't think a 2.5yr old is too young for a small amount of camomille tea.

  • I agree with PP about changing the time of his steroid if you can. Does he take it more than once a day? If not, give it first thing in the morning. Steroids are known for 2 things: increasing appetite and messing with sleep patterns. GL.
