Body spasms / movements while sleeping

My 2 year old wakes herself up with body "pulses", sometimes in her legs but mostly from the centre of her body, we were told by a doctor it might be an iron deficiency but we have been giving her an iron supplement without success, has anyone else seen this?

The only way for her to get a nights sleep is by sleeping on top of me, when she "pulses" I have to rock her back to sleep, it also seems to cause her distress, she whines in her sleep....Help!
