Are Swaying Head And Clenching Fists Normal For Baby?

My 10 month old granddaughter sways her head from side to side and at time also clenches her fists (not at the same time). She will especially do it when there s a favourite song of her s playing, but will also do it with no music. Is this something to be concerned about?

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,
Welcome to Hcm,
I dont really think that as a problem. Behavior can be varying from child to child. As long as she is not having any such persistent activities and she is otherwise behaving well, feeding well and developing well, you needn't worry. If it gets worse, the only thing that needs to be done is an eeg test to check if any seizure like activity on. Hope I cleared your query. Take care.
