Strange behaviour at sleep times - 1 year old

[haloflo]

DD has been under the weather last few days with a raised temp. It was last high at about 11am today and although a bit grumpy she has been fine for the rest of the day. The problem starts when she lays down to go to sleep. For 3 attempts at naps today and at bedtime now she falls asleep for a minute or two (well her eyes are closed) but then suddenly she jumps out of her skin, sits bolt upright and crys. What could be causing this? I took her to the docs today - he checked her ears and chest and said they were fine.

Still waking every few minutes

could you try cuddling her until she goes into a deeper sleep just to get past the jolting stage and give her a bit of reassurance that you're there?

Thank you. I just let her sleep with me last night. She woke twice but the boob calmed her down. She has been doing it again this morning though, poor baby. :o(

Ahhh poor little thing. Hope she's better soon.

Teething? Ds is getting some teeth at the moment and the last week has been waking just when you think he MUST be asleep by now. They can get a temperature with teething and its supposed to be worse at night as they aren't distracted by goings on.
