Night terrors

Has anyone had any experience with night terrors? My LO is 17 months and the last few nights has been waking screaming inconsolable and doesn’t want comforting, like she’s awake but not, it’s horrible seeing her like this and not being able to comfort her, I just don’t know what to do it goes on for at least an hour, any advise on how to handle the situation would be greatly appreciated.

So strange my 15 month has literally just done the same the cry is awful like a pain cry we though 1hr 45 mins later we maybe there 🤞🏼 we just put her night light on and tonie box some of her favourite teddies and offered water and cuddles on her terms! And just sat in her room until she’s dosed off 🤷🏼‍♀️ just whinging it here

My son was around that age when he started having nightmares, can take 10 min to 2 hrs to calm him. i either rub his back or pick him up and sway with him. But the crying/screaming/shrieking is definitely hard to hear, hurts me deep

My LO started this at 15 months and was still doing this until recently. I finally learned that this could happen from being over tired! Our pediatrician also said it coud be potential sleep parasomnia so thats definitely something to look into!

Prayer worked for me and mine 🙏🏽
