The pediatrician didn't know this????.wtf

Ok so my 18 month old niece has had some sleep issues lately. It's been going on since she turned 1 where she hardly sleeps or wakes up all night long. They did a Epilepsy/sleep study and everything came out fine. But she is still not sleeping,therefore she is becoming violent. I told SIL about checking her melatonin level(someone here advice me on that) well the ped told my SIL that she didn't know what kind of test that was. I'm like Wtf.

When my DD was little she was a late with teething and cutting new teeth caused this issue so is she cutting new teeth? It is hard to pin point things with a young child. I hope that something can be done and answers can be answered.

My sister and SIL have the weirdest doctors. Nothing is ever wrong with the kids yet one doesn't sleep. And the other is so hyper that taz is nothing compared to her lol

Quoting trainlady:

Either the sil asked the question using the wrong word or she seriously needs a new pediatrician. and quickly. This is not normal for an 18 month old

No I don't think she is,hopefully they can find a answer soon.
