i am jus wondering & puzzling that recently i noticed dear son while drinking his milk, (sometime not always) his hands sometime even his head will shake uncontrollably like as if got fit but in a mild way, is it his growing spur? He is perfectly healthy, i think..

By the way, he is 18 weeks at 77cm. 8.2kg.

18 weeks is 4.5 mths?

From what I understand from my PD, such "spasms" are normal for newborns as they're developing their reflexes. I'm not sure how long this will last but it's something they will outgrow.

Did you notice your baby doing this when he was just born? Do you find that such spasms are getting less frequent?
