my 15 month old daughter has for the last week or two started really screaming in the night she gets really upset. Its really unlike her because she usually sleeps from about 7 to 7:30 and wakes up happy just talking away in her cot but I dont know what these midnight screams are caused by. Shes nice and warm without being overheated and sometimes I can sooth her and put hrr back down but alot of the time I give her a bottle and shes happy to settle again. I wonder if shes having nightmares.

Has anyone had a similar situation? Or could think of a possible solution its not nice seeing her so upset and I already have problems sleeping as it is without needing to get up to.

We had the same thing with our little one around 16 months. Fortunately it settled down after 2-3 weeks. I put it down to a developmental thing or teeth. She's back to sleeping through and happy again at 18months.

Good luck!

We had the same thing, probably a bit earlier than 15 months. Ds would wake up screaming/crying, often he would still be asleep and only wake up when we came in so I think he must have been nightmares as he wasn't getting any teeth. Cuddles and a bottle would normally settle him and he grew out of it quickly.
Hope your dd settles soon.
