Sleep Terrors In My 5 Year Old Child
Events are rare - once every 3 to 4 months sometimes occur few weeks of one another, then not a gain for months. Notice it happens when she has a cold and fever. She typically responds to consoling, etc. - does not seem to communicate, is still able to pee when going through the event, screams and cries, but responds to being consoled tries to go back to sleep but sometimes can't.
This time she mumbled something about something hurting her but did not respond to requests to tell us what it was. Lasted 10 minutes - went straight back to sleep.

A Note On Visitor-Submitted Questions:
Publishing sleep stories and questions from our visitors is meant to create a forum for open and proactive dialogue about an extremely important portion of our lives (one that occupies 1/3 of it and affects the other 2/3). It is not meant to substitute a trip to the doctor or the advice of a specialist. It's good to talk; it is not good to avoid consulting someone who's profession it is to help you with this kind of stuff.
If you are in any way concerned about your sleep health, don't wait for an answer on here, and don't necessarily rely on them. See a sleep specialist in your area as soon as possible.
