It has been a rough week and a half. H has had more trouble concentrating than usual, has been more touchy, and has had more trouble falling to sleep. Her teacher sent home a note saying it has been a problem at school. I had figured it was a combination of sugar sneaking into her diet at Easter and just being tired of a whole year of school. However I found out it could also be due to allergies, that kids with ADHD can have more problems if their allergies are acting up. And H has had a horrible time with allergies this year, having some sneezing fits that last for 5-10 minutes during which she does nothing but sneezing. I have had to given her an antihistimine several times just so she could get through the day. I have not seen a connection between the antihistimine and her behaviour, but I am sure it has not helped.
I hope all this pollen disappears soon.
