Medical Exam needed: Persistant nocturnal awakening and crying can have several causes and a evaluation by your physician is necessary to find the cause. Sometimes pain from moving teeth can cause this, or even severe hunger pains or intestinal problems. Rule out infections e.g. Pinworms or nasal congestion. Pinworms frequently can cause nocturnal pain and crying.

Depends: Depending on the age of a child behavior like this can range from completely normal sleep patterning to abnormal behavior in need of medical attention. If the behavior is reoccurring it may be something you to bring up at the child's next well-child check-up with a pediatrician.
