Andy Sleep Rocking and Head Banging
Loading...
Uploaded by thesabias on Dec 6, 2008
My Son Andrew has been head banging since he was 6 months old. We are taking him to a neurologist to get some advice. I am posting this video to see if anyone else has had this with one of their children. Please comment below if you have.

I find this really creepy, I don't know why! It's quite ghostly and reminds me exorcism

My son Timothy is 6 years old and he has RMD. He has rocked since he was 6-9 months and it's been more of a self soother but since he has been in school it has become a disruption in class and he rocks when he doesn't relize it. I never thought anything wrong with it but I have decided since he hasn't grown out of it and people are starting to notice it was time to speak with a pediatric psyciatrist.

I was a head banger, surprisingly it is soothing I am 40+ but I remember doing it up until I was 11 teen, 12 teen 13 something like that. . . It's said try not to stop the behavior b/c it makes the child anxiety increase and want to do it all the more, just make sure he/she is safe when they do it

What's the latest? My 10 mth old is doing this. He's fine otherwise?

Wow, I did this too. I am a parent and none of my kids do it. I had the top bunk and my older bro would get mad at me for doing it and keeping him up. It is soothing. I did it on the pillow or my hands. Makes for a strong neck for the wrestling team lol. I wouldn't worry about it accept the "disorder" that the experts say. He will grow out of it. We all do.

My brother used to bang his head on a pillow or rock back and forth on the couch and bang his head on the cushion to get to sleep. He's 25 now and is quite fine but he said it was soothing (he did it right up until at least 6-7 that I can remember).

When I was younger, around his age, I would do the EXACT same thing. I would rock my body and bang my head on the wall. I would wake up with bruises. I am 18 now and I still till this day rock myself to sleep. I do not know why either.

Thank you for all of the comments. Andrew is almost five and still body rocks. He will rarely headbang. The neurologist said that he does this for comfort. He loves music and sometimes when he hears it he will begin body rocking regardless of where we are.
