Head bobbing forward (nodding)

So my 7 month old keeps bobbing her head forward now and again not sure if anyone else has experienced this weather it’s them growing and a milestone? X

I hope so! Mine does this to music 🙈😂

Isit just whilst in the jumper or when music is playing ? My daughter does it but side to side rather than forward . I think it can be self soothing ?

My lg does this all the time!! She goes full on head banging. I just through she was crazy 😂

Mine!! I was so concerned I took him to a&e. Doc dismissed it but I was so freaked out, they ordered an eeg which he’s doing on Monday…

@Daniella there probably fine! As many people said they are doing it! was yours more all the time than my video and more prominent like? x

Mine too!! He does it when he is excited or trying to grab something/interested in something. I was scared 😂

@Hayley it must be normal like! they do some mad stuff! think it’s all apart of them growing and learning new things! and getting there neck and core strength she like touches her head with things too so if she’s in the jumparoo she’ll touch her head on the mirror ect it’s something new she’s been doing Xx

Totally normal and a good sign! I’m 3 kids in and also have a 7 month old - my sister is a pediatric PT and she always explained to me that it’s a part of them exploring and connecting context to their growing capabilities of movement and vision, essentially part of gross and fine motor skill development!

@Tiff thanks very much that has made me feel 100x better 🤍

@Charlotte yeah more prominent and a lot more… your vid she seems to only do it once? My little boy will do it over and over 😭 i cried hysterically…… it did just start happening out of the blue about a week ago. It really scared me. I haven’t been able to stop worrying about it
