My 2 yr old toddler with Bronchitis... Why isn't he sleeping?

My son was diagnosed with bronchitis a few days ago. I was a little shocked because he really isn't coughing at all.. just a little here and there. He does have really bad allergies though. As for his sleeping, he has slept through the night in his room all the time, just up until he got this bronchitis. He wakes up crying for no reason at about 12 am and doesn't go back to sleep until 3 am. Why is he not sleeping through? Is there something I can do to help?

    He isn't sleeping through because he is sick. Some kids sleep better when they are sick because they are so exhausted from feel crummy, but others don't sleep as well because they feel too crummy to stay asleep or to get asleep.

    My son doesn't sleep very well most of the times when he's really sick.

    He's sick and he may be congested or he may have difficulty breathing. Try to elevate his head with pillows when you put him to bed to make his breathing easier.
