    Eyes open while sleeping..

    Is this normal? My DS usually sleeps eyes closed but sometimes they're a little open, or even half open for a while, then close again, even though he's not woken up...

    I have known of people who apparently sleep with their eyes open. It would be freaky to see LOL. But I think it's common.

    We are a family of eyes-open sleepers
    DH & I keep taking photos of each other with one eye open while sleeping - it is seriously freaky! Both the girls do it too! Its not something that happens all the time - but does happen!

    My DH and both children do it... I think it's strange, but I'm used to it now.

    What's really freaky is when you see their eye balls rolling back..DD does it when she is really sleepy and I stroke her head trying to get her off to sleep!

    My boys have their eyes slightly open very occasionally, when they're really tired. I remember my Pa used to when he was really sick too.

    The rolling is funny, when we first got married my dh lifted my eyelid up while I was in a deep sleep and reckoned he watched my eye rolling around for ages! Dork!

    Nelle, that's funny. Imagine if you woke up?

    My best mate's sister quite often sleeps with her eyes wide open. It is really quite bizarre to see.
