Does the 3-month-old baby have nightmares?

Your 3-month-old baby wakes up frequently, cries in his sleep and you wonder if it's nightmares? Here's everything you need to know about it:

• Sleep cycles take time to develop in infants.
• There is an alternation between a calmer and more restless sleep.
• During the restless sleep phase, baby may open his eyes or cry.
• You don't have to worry, but gradually the calm sleep phases will get longer until a real sleep cycle is established.
• Don't interfere, or you'll disrupt the sleep cycle.
