  Yep, my 6 week old is crazy active. He punches and kicks all the time, even when napping. He seems pretty happy though and usually smiles while doing it.

  I'd be more worried if baby wasn't active. Moving around is their way of learning hand and foot coordination. Eventually, the spastic movements will become more fluid and they won't be whacking themselves on the head.

  Haha... My LO tries to find her mouth and ends up hitting her temple all the time. Glad to know she's not the only infant appearing to be going through a head-whacking phase! I have been putting her on a play mat where she can kick a rattle, which keeps her entertained for quite a while. Love watching her learn!
