Hello,
My 4 1/2 DD had a bad dream the other night where she thought she heard someone say "ooglie booglie" in her bedroom. Lol! Well, now she is afraid at night of the shadows in her room and every sound. Last night I was with her from 1:30-4 trying to get her back to sleep! If she wakes up at night she usually is straight back to sleep unless something gets her wide awake... Then it's a few hours before she can fall back asleep.
I don't want to give a lot of attention to this though I do feel it is genuine fear.
Does anyone have any suggestions? We have talked about it and tonight we are going to adjust the night light is it's not so shadowy.
TIA.
