6 month old... crying while sleeping at night?

My DS is going to be 6 months on Thursday. The past couple of nights he starts crying while he is sleeping. It lasts maybe for 2 minutes at most. I don't think he is awake because his eyes are still closed. I thought maybe he had a poopie diaper but he doesn't. Could he be having nightmares? Do babies have nightmares? What else could it be?

Thanks!

It's nothing to worry about - it could be teething pain.

Thanks! I am not really worried per say... I just feel bad for him because its more then just fussing. Its like a loud sob. It sounds like he is really crying.... but when I walk in his room to check on him he is usually back asleep.

DD does this all the time. Nothing to be concerned with.

ETA: Does he use a binky at night? DD will cry out while she looks for her binky, but then when she finds it she lays back down and is right back to sleep. Sometimes I think it's from a dream. And sometimes I wodner if she just was asleep in a weird position and maybe an arm fell asleep or something. Just some possible causes for you.

He is a side sleeper so maybe his arm is falling alseep.

Thanks again!!
