Does your LO do this?

It does not happen very often but periodically (maybe 4 times ever) LO will wake up from a nap look at me and start screaming, like she has forgotten who I am.  It happened this weekend and it took me 20 minutes to get her to stop crying anytime she looked in my direction.  I don't know if she was just not awake yet or what.  

Anyone else had this happen?

Re: Does your LO do this?

  • LO does that sometimes to DH but usually only if its been a short nap (30-ish minutes).
    I don't think LO has done it to me. He has woken up screaming a few times, but usually has pooped or does within minutes of waking. I assume it's gas pain.
    He doesn't look at me like he's confused, just mad.

    I've had LO wake up seeming frightened before, and taken a while to calm down, although I don't know if I ever felt like she didn't recognize me. However, it sounds like maybe it could be similar to a night terror?
