By the way, night terrors occasionally occur during naps. We had a few of those, though they never occurred when she was at daycare/preschool, probably because she didn't sleep deeply enough or long enough. Night terrors occur when a child moves from one stage of sleep to another, so they are less likely during a brief nap.

If you read a good baby book that is not specific to adoption, you'll see that it probably discusses night terrors for about a page or so. That's because night terrors are common in non-adopted kids. Most pediatricians get lots of questions about them from parents of bio kids.
