Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Twitch and Quiver

Two things, sometimes my LO's right foot twitches and sometimes when I pick her up her lip quivers. Is anyone else experiencing the same thing, i asked the doctor and he doesn't seem concerned, but he hasn't see it. ?????

Re: Twitch and Quiver

  • This is normal because of their Central Nervous System.  If it worries you about the twitching, grab your babies leg or body part that is twitching, if it stops, it's nothing, if it does not, call your Dr.  DS has seizures and this is the information his Drs. gave me. I am sure everything is completely normal though.

  • Yep.  We call it Tremble Lip and Crazy Leg.  Totally normal, one of my baby books specifically mentioned it as normal in newborns.

  • Thanks Ladies, that makes me feel alot better. The worries with being a new Mom.
  • The dr is right. Their nervous systems are still maturing. They'll twitch and startle a lot.
