Interesting. I did not sleep even as a newborn. I cried for most of the first 12 months of my life and only stopped when my mother (specifically her) either walked with me or when exhausted she could lay on the couch with me. The pediatrician prescribed phenobarbital but didn't mention that it would sedate me. She gave it once and was too afraid to give it again. So I just cried.

It really never got better although I did quit crying. Sleep has always been a battle for me though. My current meds are the most effective I've tried and they are variably effective.
