My 6 month old DD has woken twice this week with screams. And I don't mean the "I'm bored come see me" screams, it's totally terrified. Last night my DH actually thought she'd hurt herself. I went in there, and she was panicking, so I held her and she was breathing heavily, staring over my shoulder. I culddled her for a while then put her back down and she was fully awake, but went back to sleep ok.
I don't want her to think that waking up = hugs, but I don't want to leave her to scream either. What's the right thing to do , and do babies have nightmares?
