13 week old son have nightmares??

Hi ladies! On occassion my son will wale on the top of his lungs when he's sleeping in his crib. One night, he screamed so loud, I bulted out of bed and ran in his room, only to find that he was sound asleep. Tonight it happened again. Is it possible for a 3 month old to have nightmares??

  • No sure but my 4.5 month old has done this a few times as well

  • They could be night terrors. My DD1 started them as an infant and now at the age of 8 still has them. She cries and screams during them. She is technically asleep but often has her eyes open. Now that she's older she will often talk/scream/sleep walk during them. I've found the best thing you can do is talk to them in a calm soothing voice and rub their back/belly. Normally for her it lasts a few minutes and then she falls back into a normal sleep.
