Hello,
My daughter, now 4 still has episodes of night terrors. I have noticed more if we do not do our normal night schedule. She gets a snack, soothing bath, a book read to her and then many loving kisses and hugs and big smiles before bed. If she goes to bed upset or cranky it seems to trigger an episode. The main thing you don't want to do is get aggravated at her(even though it's 2am) while she is having a terror. The best thing to do is sooth her and help her calm down in a nice, quiet voice. My daughter has no idea that she even has night terrors and look at me like I'm crazy for telling her she does. You can also try putting on some classical music on in her room. This will also help keep her calm while sleeping. I totally feel how you are feeling. I was at a lost in the beginning before I spoke with her Ped and read up on night terrors. I wish you the best of luck and they do go away(the terrors not the child!! LOL) Hope this helped a little:-)
