The child screams when sleeping at night

Whether it is day or night, parents' hearts are always on their children. When children are playing during the day, they worry about accidents happening to their children. And when children are sleeping at night, they worry about nightmares happening to their children. Many parents like to observe their children's sleep at night. Some children like to shout and scream when they sleep at night. Is this caused by any disease?

Sometimes, a child who is sleeping soundly will be suddenly surprised and start crying loudly, and sometimes even wave his hands around as if he is fighting with someone. At this time, no matter how the parents try to comfort them, the child will ignore them and continue to say nonsense. Sometimes, this situation lasts for a few minutes, and sometimes I fall asleep again. Occasionally, when parents wake up their children, the children’s eyes are confused and they don’t know what has happened. Some children even sleepwalk and make certain movements, but the next day, when their parents ask them about what happened the night before, the children seem to know nothing about it.

So, why do children wake up from their sleep or sleepwalk? Generally speaking, when children are young, many of their organs are not fully developed, which actually affects their sleep. If the child has this situation, but it is not obvious or only happens occasionally, parents do not need to pay too much attention to it, because this situation will gradually disappear as the child grows up.

Sometimes, children suppress their emotions too much and become very depressed or nervous, etc., but these emotions are temporary or temporary. For example, children feel scared after watching scary movies or listening to some supernatural stories at night. Generally, children have very rich imaginations when they are young. They may have all kinds of dreams because of these stimuli, which may cause children to have nightmares and wake up at night. Some children may become very anxious when facing sudden changes in their relatives or separation from their parents, and they may wake up in the middle of the night. If the child wakes up continuously while sleeping, parents should take the child to the hospital for treatment in time.

So what should parents do when their children wake up from sleep frequently? When parents see their children having night terrors, it is best not to wake their children up, because such behavior may cause the child's night terror to worsen or prolong. At this time, the most important thing parents should do is to stay calm first and not disturb their children. If the child falls asleep again, it means that the child is fine.

Generally speaking, when this happens, there is no need for parents to deliberately treat their children, because as children grow up, their various nerves or physiology will gradually mature, and this night terror will gradually disappear. If you see your child showing symptoms of night terrors, observe whether the child has any abnormal behavior during the day. If not, it means the child is fine. If a child has night terrors every day and this lasts for more than three weeks, parents should pay special attention and it is best to take the child to a doctor for treatment.
