any advice? it went on for about 30 minutes in the early hours of the morning. have had a chidl with night terrors before and this was very different. DD was clearly awake and talking to us. at one point she was sick and wet herself. she was telling us exactly where the orange bear was, hiding under teh cover to avoid seeing it and gave blood curdling screams of the sort i've never heard from her before. she did settle a little on reading endless books from her bookcase in a different room but insisted on blocking the door to prevent the bear entering and jumped at every sound in case the bear was returning. eventually let me go down teh stairs for calpol (she felt very hot to the touch by this point but not throughout) and water. and then eventaully started to play and write. a couple of hours later she left the room and went to see her brother, telling him in detail about the bear adn what it looked like. an hour or two later she went back to sleep and is now very hard to rouse but doesn't feel hot. i ruffled her hair and she woke up stared into space and said 'bear' and went back to sleep.
usually healthy, not on any medication. aged 4 years 7 months. sleep has been disturbed due to trip to grandparenst recently but on the night it occured she'd slept well.
any advice gratefully received?
