Basically I just want to know if this is normal or not.... If what Spock is experiencing are night terrors? Just really vivid dreams? Normal nearly 2 yo behaviour? Or if it is something I should get checked out...

She will wake in the middle of the night uncontrollable sobbing, like Shea not completely awake, but all she needs is a cuddle and rock and song and after 5 or so minutes she calms down and is more than happy to lay back down and go back to sleep...

Those are the good episodes...

At least once a week, sometimes twice, she wakes up having a full on tantrum. Screaming, throwing her self around, and NOTHING. Soothes her or calms her, she has no hope of going back to sleep. And I've tried soothing her, cuddling, rocking singing, I've tried distraction/redirection, I've tried just letting her get it all out, but nothing has any success, and either myself or dh end up sitting up in the lounge room with a really tired worked up cranky girl...

If she is requesting something, eg milk, or hungry. Or her drink, she repeats over and over and over and we give it to her, but even with the boob in her mouth, or with her drink in her hand she still howls for it...

I don't know, I'm sure there's nothing you can really do, but just wanted to know I'm not alone, and she is just processing all her emotions etc.... But just need to talk it out with people, and make sure she is ok
