Shaking: or tremors common in the early phase of life is normal in a younger baby but at 8 months he does need a neurologic evaluation

Explanation : Yes , it's not abnormal. That child need to be fed ASAP. Their utilization of food very intensive and need to be replaced often. With growing up it will be better.
