Though I was not a foster child, I had nightmares, night terrors and slept walked as a child. Mom figured out I was needing to go to the bathroom, and would get me up and take me, and I would never really wake all the way up. When I would sleep walk, I would actually go stand in her room, eyes open, and she would wake up, tell me to go pee, and I would turn and go, all while still asleep. From what I've read, this is common in a lot of children, but worse in those with trauma. I would definately seek therapy, but also limit the liquids at bedtime. I eventually outgrew the nightmares, terrors, and sleepwalking, all about the same time. There is hope.
