She sometimes does seem like she's still sleeping at first, so maybe that's it. </p> <p>@gingerbebe: I hope it is a phase, I'd like my evenings back! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-experience-this-at-bedtime#post-2302513 Fri, 25 Sep 2015 15:03:41 +0000 gingerbebe 2302513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had this happen to our son around 10 months - he would start screaming and crying like at 1030pm and 130am and sometimes again at 430am. It was just a phase - he stopped doing it after a few weeks and we just had to calm him down and put him back down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-experience-this-at-bedtime#post-2302383 Fri, 25 Sep 2015 13:55:33 +0000 Foodnerd81 2302383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was going to say night terrors too. Is she still really upset even when you go in and hold her, like she barely registers that you are there? I haven't experienced them but I hear the difference between nightmares and night terrors is with regular nightmares they start calming as soon as you come in, night terrors it takes a while for them to even know you are there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-experience-this-at-bedtime#post-2302301 Fri, 25 Sep 2015 13:16:03 +0000 erinbaderin 2302301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does she seem like she's still sleeping? It sounds like it might be night terrors, which I think can start around this age. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-experience-this-at-bedtime#post-2302148 Fri, 25 Sep 2015 11:52:49 +0000 Rocker2014 2302148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 11 months and has been sleeping through the night for a few months. I still nurse/rock her to sleep at night, though she can put herself to sleep at daycare and for overnight wakeups without issue. We never used CIO, the timing just never felt right. </p> <p>About two weeks ago, LO started screaming hysterically in her crib about 15 or 20 minutes after being put down asleep. The first few times it happened, I was terrified that something awful had happened to her - she bolts upright from laying down to standing up and is absolutely inconsolable for a few minutes. She has never screamed like this except when in pain (shots/blood draws/etc) and and is sweaty and out of breath by the time I get her calmed down. We are now at the point that this is happening 2 - 3 times per night, (though occasionally she'll have a night without one) and then she sleeps through the rest of the night without issue. Unfortunately, it takes 15 - 30 minutes to get her back to sleep each night, so I am spending 2+ hours on this nightly!</p> <p>Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice? I've tried motrin (she's teething) and gas drops, but nothing seems to make a difference in the number of wakeups. She hasn't been sick, and nothing else has changed. </p>
