Night Terror

Last night Tony and I had the scariest experience to date with James. He was crying in his crib shortly after going to bed and had pooped, so Tony was going to change his diaper. When he lifted him out of bed James started screaming and arching his back and punching and pulling. We didn't know what was happening so we were about to take him to the ER when we couldn't get him to settle down. He seemed to be in pain and couldn't make eye contact with us. On our way out the door, I was holding him and could feel an awareness come into his body like he had just woken up. He then said in his sweet little voice, "Mama?" After doing some searching online we came to the conclusion that this was a night terror. Very scary, but we were glad to see he was okay!
