Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.
I can understand your concern.

There could be several causes for sudden night cry. Certain causes need a physical examination to rule out the cause. It would be difficult to identify or comment on the cause even with out having the age of the child.
Bed time stories (happy stories) and identifying any stress factor ( a teacher with bad mood or bad inter parenteral relationship) may help.
Continue to ask further queries as required.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
