I symathise with you too. My dd used to have them, not every night, but quite frequently. I agree with the previous poster, I think my dd's were linked to her neeeding a wee, as after I put her on the toilet she would soon settle down. Getting her on the toilet though was a problem as she would go crazy if anyone went near her, didn't want comforting or anything. It was just a case of satying calm and talking softly trying to coax her into going to the loo. Hope it settles down soon xx

Hi, my 5 year old has them, it's horrible. Good sleep pattern and don't let them get over tired apparently help. My husband is convinced that it is linked to him wanting a wee. I know it sounds mad but when he starts DH puts him on the loo and after weeing he starts to calm down. He never remembers any of it in the morning. Jo x

Sorry I don't have any advice but I really sympathise with you, my son who is now 4 used to have these at about the same age as your dd, maybe a little younger but not every night and only once. We obviously didn't find anything that helped because they just stopped, he does have bad dreams every now and again but he responds to us and doesn't get so hysterical when he has them. I remember sitting in his room for what seems like hours on end just listening to his scream because he wouldn't let me near him but he would scream louder and shout no as soon as I tried to walk away, never did find a way to deal with it!

Can't imagine what it is like for you if she's having that many (((((HUGS))))))

Hi there - my 3 years old daughter wakes 2 to 4 times a night with night terrors. Heath visitor said they will pass but my husband and I are knackered and i was wondering if any of you had the same issue and found a solution to the problem . A friend mentioned homoepathy (sp?) but dont really want to use them. She goes to bed no problem at bedtime, always at the same time.. Help please
