Baby has GER and floppy larynx.
Noticed her head cocking to one side but now I'm noticing spasms.

Has anybody else experienced this? I'm so scared

Don't wish to alarm but sometimes sandifers can be confused with Infantile Spasms and vice versa.

Look at this video.

IS is a medical emergency so if you do suspect her video footage and go to the nearest children's A&E. A GP won't help you. Or will delay treatment which needs to be fast. .

Don't go to a 'normal' a&e. You would need access to a paediatric neuro department and an eeg service.
