Sleep consultants

Has anyone used a sleep consultant and are they worth the money? Part of me feels they are just making money from desperate sleep deprived parents but I’m starting to feel I need some help as little one is resisting bedtime

Canesten

I was prescribed canesten duo back in January by the doctor. I’m on my second week of antibiotics and have thrush again! Can I just buy it over the counter from boots or something? Or do I have to speak again with a doctor like the pharmacist says? 🤦🏼‍♀️.
