Boy you have opened up a whole computer worth of opinions, and ideas for getting enough sleep. Essential oils suggest 2 or 3 of drops of orange and lavender to a bath before bed.
You can also put a couple of drops of chamomile or lavendar on a hankie and sleep with it close by so you can smell them. They are calming. I would just put a drop of one or the other, your choice for which works best right under my nose so I could breathe it all night. These two EO's are safe enough for babies in small amounts so don't worry about having them around a baby or child. And then you have a whole computer of ideas that work for other people. Good luck and sleep well my friend. Beccie
