So my 3 year old has never been a good sleeper... she has night terrors and it just up a lot. She was in bed sleeping and we were just in the living room watching tv. We hear her gasping but it was like she couldn’t breathe! I run in her room and she’s still gasping but like no air was going in. I don’t know how to better explain it. I start shaking her but she’s still making this sound like she’s trying to breathe but she can’t. My husband goes in there and turns the light on and we both just try to wake her up. I uncovered her and pull her up to where she’s sitting in my lap and she finally catches a breath!! She’s starts screaming and screaming and crying. She finally calms down and is just shaking and covered in sweat. All she said was it’s too bright in here because of her light being on and she wanted some milk. She went right back to sleep like nothing happened.

Now I’m scared to go to sleep in case it happens again and I’m rethinking everything! Is she really having night terrors or is she just not breathing for a little bit and screaming from that? I’m calling her doctor as soon as they open tomorrow!
