Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi...it could be jitteriness if the kid is not drowsy and actively feeding and it could be seizures of the kid is drowsy and not feeding well or has fever.
I suggest you show the kid to a pediatrician immediately. If it is jitteriness you need not worry. If I were you pediatrician i would get the kids calcium checked.
