what a cute little one!! i can see them sometimes.. i think because i know a boy with West syndrome and he's doing that somtimes. they are like really small ones...
3months of age and they found nothing i'm schedule to take him in again for another one since he has been showing much more of this symptoms your son is adorable
this was such a helpful video thank you for posting it. my son has ben doing similar movements like your son in this video the only thing is that sometime mine has this rapid blinking and also it goes along with his arms stretching like punches in sets of 3s havent been able to catch it on video always miss it by seconds and it wont repeat as often as your sons they had done a EEG when he was
This was extraordinary video in that I am totally unfamiliar with this kind of seizure activity but could clearly pinpoint when his brain released him from the seizure. he is an adorable child and I hope that whatever medical intervention you have reached out for has been a help.
@vsibirsky It has. We discovered a brain tumor and have since had it removed. The seizures stopped soon after. There have been repercussions of course, and lots of delays, but the seizures themselves are gone. He will most likely though always have some kind of developmental disability. I write about it at a blog called blogzilly if you ever want to google it.
@FilmFig She is a he and no his eyes don't bulge at all. This video is from 2009, the seizures were stopped in August of 2009 with brain surgery (they were being caused by a tumor).
Hi. I am trying to figure out what is going on with my daughter. We thought it was a seizure, but after having 3 EEGs, MRI, CT the dr. said no. But she spaces out, body jerks a bit, and squints her eyes. Have you seen this before? Can you take a look at my video to see what you think?

I looked at it, but I am in no way an 'expert'. If the EEG is clean, though, I would suspect it is not a seizure, but that doesn't mean it ISN'T. I have heard of seizures being not-recordable by standard EEG. Have you looked into something called a MEG. It is the very latest technology in brain scanning when EEG is simply not good enough. My son? He's gone through a LOT since this video, the full story on Bennett I maintain on a blog called Blogzilly.
Your son reminds me sooo much of mine. He was born at 31 weeks with Periventricular Leukomalacia. (has been seeing a neurologist since birth) He has always had these episodes of what I believe are absence seizures, and does the head turn and chin quiver. about 2 months ago he started having Infantile Spasms. ACTH seems to be helping them, but he still seems to be having the absence ones :o(
Hope your little guy is doing well. He's adorable!
Thank you for posting my 3 year old is autistic and I have seen him act very similar until now I was only familliar with major full body seizures...I think you are doing a service to those of us that have no visual reference for diffrent types of seizures. Thanks!
Your child looks extremely bright to me and I would advise as a mom of a daughter who over came an EXTREME case of seizures to put down the camera and focus on giving him as normal as a life as you can.It served us well.
My daughter has had seizures like this and it also includes her left eye blinking. She looks like she is staring and out of it. They are complex partial seizures. His seizures seem like they are pretty long...her seizures are very quick. My daughter is 15 months and has tuberous sclerosis.

@MIDNIGHTLOVE404 The EEG will tell you everything you need to know. Good luck to you and your son.

They may be partial complex or partial simple seizures, which often have staring, slight movements, especially in the face, and unresponsiveness.
