5.5 yo Tossing Turning Constantly at Night
Our 5.5yo son has seemingly always been a very 'active' sleeper. Looking at the baby monitor motion detections each morning, I see he has small movements (tossing and turning) seemingly every 10-15 minutes. Here is a video of me scrolling through all the movement alerts for one night: https://imgur.com/a/qEE7MVw
I don't believe he fully wakes up each time, but I can't help to think he's not really getting the fullest rest he could be. He seems to have decent energy during the day, so it may be a non-issue, but it just appears to be restless sleep.
We did look into a child sleep study, but they tend to be more focused on sleep apnea and tonsils, etc. I'm not sure if this type of sleep disturbance would warrant a sleep study, so any thoughts on that are welcome as well!
Note he has been diagnosed with ADHD and is medicated but I will say that this restless sleep pattern has existed well before the medication regime started, I probably started noticing it at around 4 years old, but I can't be certain.
