Hey MrsJC,
come and tell me your ds was just like this but he's over it. (And then for the love of god please don't tell me what he's doing now! )
Ds has started screaming whenever he rolls over in his sleep. He scares himself, I think, because he screams the same way he does if he bonks his head while grunniting round on the floor during the day -- and he can't be stopped with a mere shush and a cuddle - it just goes on and on until his fingers find his mouth, or he finds a comfortable position.
He has also stopped letting me rock/sing him to sleep - it's all about thrashing around, rolling back and forth and up and down the bed (all with loud commentary), until he drops off - last night this went on for two hours. Oh, and of course it's in our bed. If he goes in the cot the thrashing brings him up against the rails which starts the screaming off...
Go on, laugh, share...
