Sleep Walking??

For a while I've been wondering if some of Andrew's "waking" at night and ending up in our bed was due to sleep walking. But then I always dismissed the thought.

Last night Andrew went to bed around his usual time 8:00pm. Around 10:30 he quietly walked from his room, through the lit living room where Chad and I were still watching TV-shielding his eyes from the light, into our bedroom. He did start whimpering once he got to our bed and realized it was empty. Chad went in and picked him up and took him back to his bed. He was grinding his teeth while Chad carried him back to bed, which makes me think he was still asleep. He never said anything to Chad; when Andrew is awake he talks even if it is only a sleepy "What are you doing?" or "Why are you taking me back to my bed?" Do you think he could be sleep walking?? He was such a good sleeper for so long, but the past probably two months have been a struggle. I think he is also scarred at night as well.

After Chad and I went to bed, he was awake again around 11:30. He never left his room, just screamed "MOMMY!" several times. I went into his room, he was sitting up in bed. I helped him lay back down and covered him up. He was soon deep sleeping again. Neither of us said anything. He showed up in our room sometime later on, I really have no idea when! I woke up laying on my back, straight as a pencil, with my right shoulder touching Chad and my left touching Andrew and a very stiff back. This was around 4 when I got up and carried Andrew back to his bed. He showed up again later on before the sun came up. Over the past week I have done much of that, carrying Andrew back to his bed in the middle of the night. I have also just left him in our bed and gone to sleep on the couch or in Andrew's bed myself. It is really getting old. I guess it is a good thing Andrew was moved out of his crib into a double bed and not a toddler or twin bed! :)
