18. My son didn't sleep. Round the clock for the first three years, he was up every two hours.
I stopped afternoon naps for him at one year old (he rarely slept then anyway). When he did take an afternoon nap, he would be up very late. I used Benedryl, but usually not until midnight or 1 AM. And it still took an hour for him to go to sleep.

When he was three years old, I got a break. He stopped getting up ever two hours and went to a get-up-two-or-three-time-a-night gig. When he started kindergarten, it was two or three time a week in the night.

As a young adult, he still has very irrgeular sleeping habits. But, alas! I can no longer dose him with Benedryl!

(It's why I only had one child... Another with sleep patterns like his would have killed me. )
