Im not sure if this is the right place for this thread as I dont know if it is a serious thing or not....(waiting for the ped app.)

My little boy is 8 months old and scince he was about 6 months old i have noticed a change in his behaviour.

Im not sure how to describe it but he will have these little jerky movements (only one at a time) and some times it is only his upper body and other times it is his hole body, some times he will make a noise at the same time and some times not.
They happen at any time and i cant seem to recognize a patten ( like excited etc)
Some times he will do it for a while and then not do it for hours.....
Now im confusing myself.
He is healthy, Happy, developing well, reaching all his milestones... Is he just being a kid or am i going out of mind with worry for a reason....
If i could get any help it would be appreciated...

Maybe a visit to your GP or health nurse will help. They are usually the best ones to contact.

Hopefully it's just a little quirky habit he has, but better to know for sure. I'd see his gp, or a paediatrician and make sure you get the answers you want.

I think you're just being a good mum, there's nothing wrong with finding out for sure.

Hi,
Just to let you all know....Feeling like a drama queen.
DR says that it is more then likely some thing that he has realised gets a reaction out of me so keeps on doing it.
So im still going to keep tabs on it and hopfully he will grow out of it.
I have a very wierd child at 8 months can you just emagine what im in for....
Thanks anyway.
