Is it normal for 18 month old toddlers to have nightmares? Even when they're living in a happy environment? What can you do to get them to stop having nightmares? They wake up and scream at night.

Thats something your child will grow out of. Just make sure you make the child feel safe after it wakes up from the nightmare.

It is perfectly normal for a baby to start having "night terrors" between the ages of 1 and 1 1/2...This comes from my son's pediatrician. Your baby will eventually grow out of it even though it makes you feel bad for him/her when they wake up screaming. I was told by the Dr. only to go into the room if my baby was really crying, if he whined just let him be.

I suggest if the environment is healthy and the child is having nightmares to reverse the psychology and start yelling and slight beating(not too bad) and degrading the child so it wants to go to a better place when it goes to sleep.

They are not mightmares they are "night terrors" All three of mine had these and they would sit up in bed and just scream and cry without waking up. You just need to hold them and let them go through this. Go here, hope this helps!

the physician who used the steel gadget to retract your son's foreskin? checklist him to the AAP. that's no longer suitable technique and he's to blame to your son's modern-day circumstance. you do no longer might desire to retract to scrub below the foreskin: while the toddler pees, the pee washes around in there and cleans it itself. the foreskin would not cut loose the top of the penis till the toddler is a minimum of 2yrs of age even nonetheless it may take as long as 7 yrs. the reason your son is in soreness is as a results of the fact he has a circumstance referred to as "phimosis", the place the foreskin has been scarred and lost its elasticity. this might properly be an instantaneous effect of that first incompetant physician's action. actual, i might desire to easily cry. right here is a few thing you probable did no longer understand: locate out if that physician does circumcisions or if he's extremely professional-reducing. there are docs who do what he did specifically for the objective of arising unwilling father and mom do what the *physician* thinks is physically powerful, no longer what they think of is physically powerful.

Don't worry, its normal. He could have simply dreamt of falling and it woke him up and gave him a good scare.
