Childhood sleepwalking may manifest itself as walking or talking in one's sleep.
Children usually face this problem in preschool and primary school age. Sometimes this phenomenon is observed in adolescence due to hormonal changes.
But there are also cases when sleep disorders manifest themselves at a very early age – for example, in children who have been diagnosed with CNS disorders.
If you notice this type of behavior in your son or daughter, be sure to show them to a doctor.
This needs to be done in order to ensure that there are no diseases that can provoke sleepwalking (including, for example, epilepsy).
In addition, the specialist will tell you what the baby’s regimen and lifestyle should be, and will also prescribe medications and physical therapy, if necessary.
