About David Olson, MD
Expertise
I would be happy to attempt to answer any questions about general pediatric topics, either medical issues or behavioral issues. This would include all the various questions one receives in a busy pediatric practice. I`m a board certified pediatrician in northern Michigan and have been in practice for over 15 years. I enjoy the teaching role I have in our practice and would enjoy the opportunity to help others with their pediatric problems.

Pediatrics - baby fighting sleep

Expert: David Olson, MD - 7/7/2009

Question
Hello, my husband and I have a huge problem on our hands. Our month old will not sleep! We have tried everything. Our ways to comfort aren't working anymore. We have even tried letting him cry for 30min. but he just won't go to sleep! Help! Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Answer
Hi, Amanda,

This is a complicated issue that I can't really do justice to unless I see a baby and discuss this in detail with the parents.

Therefore.....here is a handout that I use extensively to help.

Hope it helps you, good luck, Dr. Olson
