i noticed that my baby cries when she wakes up late a night...

my nephew went through this. you should do some reasserch on "Night Terrors" ...thats what it sounds like. they'll wake up crying and do that for abou 5-10min and they'll normally do that around the same time every night. what i think happens is your child is caught between 2 stages of sleep where they're not in full REM cycle but they can't wake themselves up. most of the time when they're like this and crying they're probably still asleep in a way because they won't acknowledge you're there. another thing it might be is growing pains, where their bones start to grow faster then their bodies can keep up. sometimes that happens. its hard to watch but there's nothing you really can do about but just comfort her.

try to look for something that would make her cry like she might have some stomach ache or an insect bit her like mosquitoes.try to attend to her regular never left her alone on her crib or bed.babies love to know that their mom is always by their side and not leaving her alone anytime of day.just be patient and soon the little baby you have will be a grown up someday and will be very proud of you because you took care of her when she was just a baby.

I'm guessing that your baby might have been uncomfortable when she woke up. maybe it's not that she's cold but that she's hot. Did you check if she was sweating? If she WAS hot then it could also mean that she's thirsty because those two are very related. Thanks for the response on my discussion!
