Sleep talkers

Mods I think this might be in the wrong area. Move it if you need to.


Anyone else have a child that talk in their sleep?
My DD1 goes off!!
She talks, sings, fights, laughs, yells. Everything. I'm used to it & sleep through it now, but she's always waking other people up.
Should I be worried? Mum seems to think she's not getting enough deep sleep coz of it. I've never been worried before. It's funny listening to her arguing about wanting the pink one in her sleep!

Hahaha!!! My brother used to always call out "I want the blue one!". When I moved back home after separating from my ex, my brother was in the next room, and he was 17 at the time and called out "I want the blue one" in his sleep again... I thought it was so cute that he still said the same thing.
All of my kids chat away in their sleep... I do it too, so I think it is fairly normal. My DH always has a giggle at the things I say in my sleep, and it is kids funny to her what the kids say in theirs. Harrison is 18 months old and often giggles in his sleep which is the cutest thing! I am sure your daughter is fine and getting enough sleep.

Yeah, I've had DD2 say the odd thing, but not very often, & DS laughed in his sleep when he was only about 10 weeks old.
I think she just talks too much & her mouth keeps going after she's asleep!

My DH does but it usually involves his radios (he is a ham radio operator) so I don't understand what he is talking about. DS continuously says "no, don't want" then "oh dear, alright". Apparently I talk about white rabbits with red eyes.

We all seem to get enough sleep so I doubt it would affect the quality or quantity of sleep.

I've never really worried. She used to be a snorer too, but has since had her tonsils & adnoids out & grommits in, so is sleeping better.
Mum was just a bit worried coz she is so restless & does it ALL night. Almost non stop.

Does she seem rested during the day? Or after she wakes up?

I have talked in my sleep all my life - course I confess any lies I've told or any bad things I've done lol. I've never notice it affect my sleep too much.
