A member asked:
Is it normal that my 4 month old twitches his arms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can be: Many infant movements are random & "twitchy" due to the immaturity of the nervous system and a variety of reflex movements. These vary with age & state of alertness. Share your concerns with your pcp and s/he can watch & see if there is any need for concern.
