It doesn't happen often, but I always go in and soothe her too.<br /> Hope your LO starts sleeping peacefully again soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-going-on#post-153150 Wed, 09 May 2012 15:33:03 +0000 MrsHotDog 153150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I talked to the doctor and she said it sounds like night terrors but I am taking her in to rule out any ear infections or something else. I am so sad for our daughter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-going-on#post-152766 Wed, 09 May 2012 09:49:33 +0000 mrs. wagon 152766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wagon Jr. is now 2 years, 5 months old and he still wakes up screaming most nights. It's awful. I hate it. I've been waiting for him to grow out of it but it's been consistent pretty much since he started sleeping thru the night at 4 months. It's anywhere from 1 to 4 times a night, he'll wake up crying or screaming, sometimes walk around the crib, but usually within a minute he calms down and/or finds his lovey and then is back to sleep within 10 minutes. I know I'm doing the right thing by not going in there (especially since he goes back to sleep by himself every time) but it still breaks my heart after 2 years of this every night!!! </p> <p>I find that on days when he's gone to bed late, or had a REALLY exciting day, he wakes up more. If he's had a normal but tiring day (park, etc) and he goes to bed pooped, he will sometimes not wake up at all. </p> <p>Wagon Sr. is an incredibly active sleeper and does everything in his sleep... talks, thrashes, etc... so I'm thinking it's just the way he is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-going-on#post-152754 Wed, 09 May 2012 09:40:30 +0000 MrsHotDog 152754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: Do you remember about how long it lasted? I don't even know what she could already be having night terrors about. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-going-on#post-152751 Wed, 09 May 2012 09:35:13 +0000 looch 152751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son went through this around the same age, and we just had to wait it out. Eventually he grew out of it, but it still happens sometimes at 17 months.<br /> I don't think it's separation anxiety, but I do think it was night terrors. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-going-on#post-152750 Wed, 09 May 2012 09:33:23 +0000 Alivoo01 152750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bless your heart!! Hope your pediatrician can over some insight and resolution to this! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-going-on#post-152747 Wed, 09 May 2012 09:29:46 +0000 MrsHotDog 152747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I think I will call them today. I really hate to think she is having nightmares already...it breaks my heart. I would much rather it be separation anxiety because I can fix that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-going-on#post-152744 Wed, 09 May 2012 09:27:49 +0000 DillonLion 152744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It sounds like nightmares/night terrors to me! But I am no expert. I'm sorry you guys are going through this! Can you ask your pediatrician? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-going-on#post-152740 Wed, 09 May 2012 09:26:28 +0000 MrsHotDog 152740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter is almost 10 months old and is an all-star sleeper. She has been sleeping through the night since she was six weeks old but in the past two weeks she has woken up screaming her head off. The first time it happened, she stopped crying the second I picked her up but refused to go back in her crib. I ended up sleeping with her in the guest bedroom. It was a horrible nights sleep because I was sooooo paranoid since I have never slept with her before. It didn't happen again until the next week and I had to sleep with her again. She would freak out the second I would try to put her back in the crib. Also, before she woke up crying for us, she woke my husband and me up because she was whimpering in her sleep. It happened again three nights ago and had happened every night since then. It takes about an hour before I can get her back in her crib to fall asleep. She protests a little but I just rub her back and talk to her until she falls asleep. What could be going on? Does it sound like separation anxiety or maybe even nightmares? What can I do to help her? It is the most heart breaking cry ever. My husband said it sounds like she is crying because she is scared. I get to her as fast as I can but she gets so worked up in that minute it takes me to get there that it even messes up her breathing. Sorry for the novel but I just hate that our little sweetie is having to go through this and I want to fix it. Thanks for reading! </p>
