Night of Terrors

Oh my, something crazy happened last night. Jude still wasn't feeling up to par, so we put him to bed early and hoped he would catch up on sleep since he woke up at 4:45 that morning (ugg!). I decided to go to bed early too and was sound asleep by 9:30 (amen), well at about 10:30 Jude woke up screaming. Doug went in so I could keep sleeping! A few minutes passed with no relief to the screaming so I decided to go in. I tried and tried to calm him with no luck. This was strange bc I can always calm him down. We decided to take him out to the living room and turn the light on when I realized that it seemed like he wasn't even coherent. He just wanted to walk around screaming bloody murder. It was breaking my heart! We tried to calm him with Elmo videos and Doug got his favorite fruit snacks (we were desperate!) and he just ignored them both! This was not our boy! Finally I took him outside and the cold snapped him out of it and he seemed like he was now with it! Thankfully I got him to go back to bed within a few minutes of that! I have no idea what that was all about, but my best guess is a night terror! It was so scary to see my baby not respond to anything and be so inconsolable! I hope that NEVER happens again!
