I can't add anything to help, but I can let you know you're not alone. My daughter is 17 months, and she will randomly wake up screaming during the night. This isn't just an, "I'm awake, come here" scream. This is a, "I am hurt" scream. I can wake me out of a dead sleep. I'll go in to get her, and she's just laying there, screaming. I'll pick her up or try to comfort her in her bed, and she'll start to calm down, but then the uncontrollable crying starts. So I'll sit and rock her or just rub her back until she catches her breath, but by that point, she's too awake to go back to sleep. I don't know anything else to do to help her. I fear that when the next one comes I'll be in the same boat you are, with no sleep and 2 unhappy kids in the middle of the night.
