How to Determine If a Baby Has Epilepsy

The characteristic of a minor epilepsy seizure in children is a sudden onset and sudden cessation of brief loss of consciousness, without convulsions. During an attack, the child may remain motionless, with a pale complexion, speech temporarily stopped, and hands unable to hold objects. Sometimes, they may be unsteady on their feet. Symptoms generally disappear after 2 to 10 minutes, and the child may have no memory of the episode. Parents should be aware that this could be a sign of epilepsy.
