9 month head spasm/ twitch

Does anyone have any experience of this? The last couple of days my 9 month old has been twitching her head to the side, with her shoulder coming up at the same time. It’s quite jerky and definitely involuntary. Doesn’t happen all the time just occasionally. But in little spurts of a few at a time. Any ideas? She doesn’t have any health issues or seem to be bothered about it. I think she might have been squinting her eyes a bit too but I’m not sure about that. Any advice most appreciated.

Yes! My DS did this tooth. I'm almost 100% sure it's to do with teething. My DD is 8.5 months and no teeth yet, but all the signs...including this weird shrug xxx

Haha I mean too* not tooth

Thank you. It could be teething. She has two so far, so is due some more in.
