Does your toddler have nightmares? Do they tell you about them?

C is 27 months, an ok, not great sleeper in general, but lately I think she's been having nightmares. It's so sad, she wakes up screaming and crying, but as soon as one of us goes into her room, she calms down, so I don't believe it's night terrors. She will go back to sleep with Dh or me in the bed with her but sometimes will whimper or cry out in her sleep a few more times in the night.

So, I think it's nightmares, but who knows. She's also still working on two molars but that doesn't usually cause the scared sounding scream. She's very verbal but never tells us what's wrong when it happens. It seems to happen on good days when nothing bad happens, or on not so great days when she's had a fall, or I've lost my temper and yelled at her.

It's so sad. Anyone else?
