Baby screaming in her sleep

[Jes1989]

Hey. My daughter coming up to 6 months now and the last week or so she been screaming in her sleep nearly every hour. When I check on her she fast asleep and just changed her position. Has anyone else experienced this.

Hi my 5 month old does this too, not as frequently but once or twice at night now and then. I was reading a scary conspiracy theory on my phone in bed the other night and he did it then I almost shat myself! he's always fast asleep though so maybe just because their brains are developing more now? Too young for nightmares but I think it's normal.

Yer that would of scared me as well. Her mind defiantly ahead of her body she so desperate to be on the move but her body not there yet. Am finding the lock in is not helping as she seems to be getting bored as much as I try to keep her busy

Mine did this too. Developmental I think but once he was a bit cold and it kept waking him up I think. Being too hot can also give them nightmares (it's still not clear if they get them!) Do you have a thermometer next to the bed?

Yer the temp comes through on our camera, she hates the heat so do keep her window on the gaps. When she slept next to me I use to be freezing lol
