Question

Can a 6 month old have night terrors ? My son wakes up screaming sometimes I mean it's a horrible horrible cry and it takes at least 5 mins to settle him down and you have to fully wake him up to try and get him to stop

Answer

My 6 year old cousin started having them when he was about 3 months old. They still don't know why or how to stop them. His mom still wakes up every night to him freaking out and crying. It's so heartbreaking 😞

It is. We still have weeks where he has them. He has nights where he's calm in 5-10min, others where it can take 45min or more, and some nights when he doesn't wake up or even know we're there trying. We haven't figured out any reasons why, and there's nothing we can do about them 😖

@nomli we have an appointment Friday to talk to his pediatrician I've already asked his neurologist(he has seizures) and they have no idea but it's horrible!!

My son did. I don't think it was quite that early but maybe 7/8m? I remember asking his doctor about it  at the 9m appointment, and it had been going on for a while.
