Talk to doc: Talk to your pediatrician.Usually night terrors do not happen at 15 months.You can occasionally see in child as young as 18 months but they usually happen about age 4 to age 11 or 12 yo.Night terrors are characterized by frequent recurrent episodes of intense crying and fear during sleep, with difficulty arousing the child. Unlike nightmares, most children do not recall the dream .
