Q. #pediatrics my 8 month old suddenly started bending head forward ( chin touches collarbone) multiple times, sometimes once or sometimes 3-4 times in succession from the last 10-12 days. She seems to be alert while doing so. she started doing very frequently in day > 10 in day which reduced to once or twice or none gradually. suddenly yesterday we saw she did it again very frequently > 20. all other activities seem to be age appropriate. she recently recovered from sepsis. We are confused if this is habit or some medical problem. Google says infantile spasm. very worried. please advise.
