hey,
i just came in from visiting my gran, got in and ds (7 months) was still sleeping in stroller.
I left it in the hall and let my dogs outside for a wee, came back ds sytill sleeping, i went into living room and set up the dvd player, heard ds crying.
I went out and got him, took his jacket and trousers off, got him a bottle ready and put him down in his cot with bottle untill i got his pj's out the drawer, when i returned to him he was shacking, twitching, on his back his hands were flapping all over the place and twitching with his arms out streached.
i picked him up while he was still twitching and then he stgopped about 20 seconds later, so im guessing it lasted about 30 seconds.
called nhs 24 and they asked if he had bumped his head, had been sick, i said he had been sick once today but it was just milky. he had bumped head yesterday as he is starting to pull himself up on the furnature. He is on meds for oral thrush atm so i mentioned that too.
His face and neck are roasting but his temp was only 37.8 which she sais wasnt too bad.
She told me to give him calpol and put him to bed, if he is sick to call back...
Has anyone else had any similar situations? Did your lo ever take a turn like this again?
