She looks sweet now, but had we taken a picture earlier.........
I am beginning to thinks that Rachel may have night terrors. Last night she screamed on and off from about 2am until about 8am sleeping restlessly for a little here and there. Is she to little for night terrors? I really need to read up on it. Has anyone else had kids who suffered from this?
She opened her eyes, but no amount of talking, holding, feeding, would console her.It was like she didn't see or hear us. She has done this 3 other times so far. Always after a busy day.(and when I have stayed up late getting even less sleep)
Finally at 8:00 she slept for 2 1/2 hours really deeply and then woke up her usual charming self.(this is when the picture was taken)
Hopefully tonight we will be back to sleeping through the night!!!

I've seen the star wars acapella thing before and loved it. what a talented idea and guy.
What you are describing about Rachel does sound like night terrors, but I didn't know you could get them at such a young age. It does remind me when you mentioned that she gets this way on very busy days, that my children were like this too. It was the noise from everywhere on those busy days that brought a lot of over stimulus; which in turn brought for a horrible night. You think they are doing ok in the day becuase they are sleeping the whole time and you don't think they are bothered, but I found they weren't getting really good sleep which then left them overly tired and exhausted which in turn was all night screaming. I don't know what to tell you other than make sure she gets a really good nap some time that day so she's not overly exhausted. good luck
