4 year old sick bug scare

Earlier tonight I heard my 4 year old crying a little so went straight in to him to check on him and thank goodness I did…I was rubbing his back to settle him but he still wasn’t settling.. his eyes were half open and he had quite a vacant look for about 30 seconds/a minute. He didn’t look right but he has suffered night terrors since an early age so I didn’t know if it was a nightmare. I got worried so was trying to wake him and banged on the floor for my partner to come up as something didn’t seem right. As my partner was walking upstairs a load of sick flew out my poor little man’s mouth. He’d only gone to bed absolutely shattered about half an hour before so I think that’s why he was so hard to wake. But he was doing such a strange stare with his eyes open and I can’t get it out of my head, it’s made me worry whether he actually couldn’t breathe before he was sick and the mum guilt is consuming me. I keep thinking I should have sat him up, (but with night terrors I was told not to do that). Or if I’d have been asleep and hadn’t heard him😢 It’s really shook me up!
