Question

Is it normal for a two-month-old baby’s feet to tremble occasionally? Should I be concerned?

Answer

Occasionally, babies may exhibit involuntary tremors in their feet or lips, which are a normal part of neurological development. If there is no history of purple lips or oxygen deficiency at birth, there is usually no need to worry excessively. It is recommended that parents allow the baby to drink more water and consider appropriate supplementation of calcium and cod liver oil to promote the development of nerves and muscles. At the same time, maintaining a warm environment for the baby can help reduce the occurrence of involuntary tremors. However, if this phenomenon occurs frequently or is accompanied by other symptoms, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly and undergo further examinations such as a CT scan to determine the cause.
