Unfortunately, we haven't found out any new info on the tremors my daughter has been experiencing. They have actually diminished in frequency, although the last time she had one about 2 weeks ago, her whole body tremored. It had previously been confined to her arms and head. She's 6 months old now and seems to be developing normally in every way. I'm hoping that she is "growing out of them." We tried to video tape the episodes like the neurologist suggested, but that was impossible. I will tell her doctor about the newest tremor at her upcoming 6 mo. visit, but I expect the doctor will tell us to continue watching for other changes. We're changing to a different pediatric practice so if her new doctor has any other suggestions or info, I will post it. Someone posted a question "if they should be concerned if their child was having a tremor?" I think if a child is acting in a manner that's out of the ordinary, there is always reason to question what the cause may be and to ask a doctor. I'm sure most of the time it's a harmless condition, but I would want to know that rather than guess. BTW, my baby hasn't had the fist clinching and she has been bottle fed since she was 3 months, so I guess nursing isn't a factor.
