My 7yo DS has had 2 nights in the last week where he has been half awake and crying out in his sleep with pains in his legs and feeling sweaty. It's quite a loud distressed cry although he doesn't fully wake up.
The only thing I can think of is that this is growing pains. I gave him a dose of paracetamol last night but it didn't seem to make much difference. I tried stroking / massaging his legs but in his half awake state he didn't like it.
After about 15mins he did settle and then was fine for the rest of the night.
Has anyone else experienced similar or got any suggestions ?
