Question
The baby started showing this behavior at two and a half months old, tilting its head back and twitching its limbs while lying on the bed at night, becoming extremely excited, and making ‘ohh’ sounds every day. The mother calls out to him, but he doesn’t respond. However, he returns to normal when picked up. This never happens during the day, and the baby can turn over and smile on its own, and recognize its mother by two months old. Is this condition urgent? Could it be epilepsy?
Answer
Did the baby have any water aspiration at birth? The situation you described may not necessarily be epilepsy. Epilepsy usually has a history of seizures, while your baby is growing and developing well. It is recommended that you take good care of your baby and supplement vitamin D to help with calcium absorption. There is no need for special treatment in other aspects. The behavior you described may not be epilepsy.
