Shaking head

My son is 8 months and just started shaking his head back and forth like he's saying no.  Does anyone else's LO do this?

    Mine started when he was about 6 months. At first he did it when he was getting sleepy, but now (9 months) he does it all the time.  I don't think he's actually trying to say no though, I think he just likes it.  He'll do it when I ask him a question, even if the answer is obviously yes.  If I say do you want more oatmeal, he'll shake his head but open his mouth for another bite.  He thinks it's hilarious when he does it and then I nod my head yes back at him.

    My LO does this when he’s sleepy or when he has had an ear infection.

    My son started doing this at 5 months. I think when he gets bored this entertains him. Because he seems to like it and doesn't seem bothered by it at all. I guess he will stop if it starts bothering him, so I just let him have his fun!
