8 month old with neck twitch

i feel a little silly posting this as it’s hard to explain but the past month or so my 8 month old has had this weird neck twitch which is concerning me a bit. I notice it mostly when she’s in her Highchair but at other points throughout the day as well. She suddenly presses her neck/ ear to her shoulder like she’s twitching. Also keeps shaking her head from side to side like she’s saying no. Have videos of her doing it but not sure if you’re allowed to post these on here. Will be ringing doctors tomorrow but wondered if anyone had any idea of what it is before I go? Getting quite worried about her as it came up with epilepsy when I googled it

@Daisysimply happened to my DD too at the same sort of age and I even saw a paed who said it was just a funny movement she liked to do because it felt nice perhaps and she would grow out of it - she did a few months later. Don't worry but if you are.. take a video and share with the Gp x

Thank you for your response! I took her to the doctor and they said it was nothing to worry about, not sure why she does it tho probably just likes the feeling of it like you said!
