Trouble Needs a Home
I wish I could give some helpful advise but all I know is, I was never afraid of thunderstorms and maybe the children sensed that. I tried to make it a game for them. Maybe your child is sensing your fear? Good luck and keep in mind that EVERYTHING! in life is temporary.
I was never afraid either I LOVE lightning and thunderstorms but some just react to it. Babies are still totally instinctual and the air IS charged during these times so they and animals can react no matter what you do. I had a friend who lived her whole life with the Tucson monsoons but one of her border collies would literally throw itself against the wall and FREAK out every time a storm hit. She eventually found that crating her was the key.
