My 10month old has recently started waking more often in the night. although I understand some babies go through a sleep regression phase around this age, him waking up isn't the problem it's how he wakes up.
He will be absolutely fine then all of a sudden wake screaming, no crying or tears just screeching. Sometimes he will have his eyes wide open and push away from me when I try to comfort him. It often takes 10mins or so to get him back off to sleep. This happens at least four times a night.
He sleeps in a cot in our room, waking like this happens regardless of being in his cot or in our bed. It is petrifying to watch as he is just screaming for no clear reason.
Has this happened anyone else? Were they night terrors or just part of sleep regression? Did your baby grow out of it?
