sleep crying??

[AB77]

Hello!

This is my first post and hoping for some help, my LG is 6 months now and she has always slept well, past few weeks she has just started crying/moaning in her sleep? The only was to comfort her is to cuddle her tight; but I don't want to get into that habit ! I have a feeling it's her teeth coming through so apply gel but it doesn't help! any suggestions on what this could be? anyone else has this experience? ? Thanks! !

Hello, didn't want you to go unanswered! My ds is now 12 months & still has a shriek/cry in his sleep. He used to need comforting back to sleep but barely wakes now. Teething is horrible, we used anbesol, ibuprofen and Ashton & Parsons poweders which seemed to work for us. Teeth move about loads before they actually come through so maybe the topical treatments are for later on? Don't worry about comforting her, she's so tiny! It always changes as they get older anyway

My DD is a similar age and does this too. She usually just stays asleep and in only lasts a couple of minutes. If it lasts longer we cuddle her. I think she is teething too, or her teeth are moving around like previous poster says.
