A. Hello...Infantile spasms refers to a type of seizure that occurs in babies with epilepsy. Infantile spasms share some of the same features as the Moro reflex. ... They typically resolve by the age of 5 years, although other seizures may take their place.. . The Moro reflex refers to an involuntary motor response that infants develop shortly after birth. A Moro reflex may involve the infant suddenly splaying their arms and moving their legs before bringing their arms in front of their body.
