7mo shudder/shivering (X posted in LWAB)

[GreenGranolaMama]

Every once in a while 7mo DS will shudder or shiver. It is random, but happens at least once a day as of lately. DH didn't believe me/ thought it might have been because he was cold, but I was over at my moms house today and he did it while she was holding him and was like "oh, what was that?" I asked her if she thought it might be a tick of some sort and she said no, it seemed too slow (if that makes sense). My Mom has experience with working with children with special needs, so most of the time she knows her stuff.

DS has hit all of his milestones to date (sitting unassisted, laughing, babbling, eye contact etc...)

He has had two shots of Pentacel, one at 2 months and the other at 6 months.

I do not remember him shuddering/shivering before 6 months.

Should I be worried, because I am freaking out...Does anyone else have experience with this????

honestly, DD shivers when she pees, and sometimes when she poops. it could be something that simple. hope it is.

Thank you! I X posted in LWAB and a bunch of the Moms over there said the same thing! Defiantly makes me feel a whole lot better

My friend's baby shivers when she wakes up. It looks like she is cold but she isn't. They are not worried about it. She does it in the morning and after naps, I wonder if it could be blood sugar because she hasn't eaten in a while but she just does it for a little bit then stops.

Honestly, if this were in a non-vaccinated child I would not worry about it as much as if it were in a vaccinated child. I always think of neurological damage in a child that's vaccinated.
