Ethan has been having night terrors on occassion and they terrify me as much as they do him. I am so disoriented when woken in the middle of the night by him screaming that it takes me a while before I realize what is going on. My heart stops for a moment but feels like much longer. He cries in a way I never hear him cry. I end up doing what you’re not supposed to do-wake him up. Last night I tried to have him lay back down and work through the terrors but he kept screaming and pulling on me that I was concerned something was wrong. In the process of checking him out, I think I woke him up and then he was upset and scared. Although he may have still been dreaming, it’s so hard to tell with babies. He did fall back to sleep very quickly. I sure didn’t.
