Mom of a 5 yr 8 m old girl5 years ago
Q.

#Pediatrics My 8 month's body shakes including chest, head n back while breastfeeding during half sleep sometimes, not always. She seems to be half asleep as she sucks milk ( movement happen while sucking) and then stops and in few secs again sucks. She seems to be not bothered by these movements and continues to suck or sleep. These stop if nipple is taken out. Is this something concerning. She otherwise is sitting, crawling and tries to stand with support. Makes aa sound randomly but not babbling yet as dada mama. please advise

A. hi your baby is 8 months old now it's normal if baby does some movements during sleep these are called as myoclonic jerks and are seen in all individuals of all age groups

A. Hello dear parent, small babies shiver and that is very normal. Do not worry much. Just maintain good temperature of her room so that baby is feeling good. Also babies start babbling after age 18 months not before that. Before that babies only do aaa baaaa etc.
