My 12 month hold has been having episodes of spacing out,confusion, body jerking while asleep, and whining spells where she cnt stay still, but she not completely aware of these things.. I say her name and try to play with her but not much response just a little bit at time and there are times when she is not responsive at all.. the first time she started doing this was 4 days ago, she started off sleep then vomiting after vomiting she started gagging and foaming at the mouth soon after became disoriented for about 2 hours.. Just wondering has anyone expeiened this with their baby? i should add she is going for an eeg... thanks in advance!
Thanks everyone for your help on this. She is currently awaiting an appointment to get an EEG.... She never fell or hit her head... I guess we just have to just wait till we get that test
If it's episodic and not continuous, it sure does sound like she's having seizures, Juanita. I'd want a doctor to check her as soon as possible. Good luck; I hope it's something you can get under control quickly.
I have never experienced this but has your daughter fallen and hit her head or any kind of head trauma? I assume that you have taken her to the doctor already? Did the pediatrician have any diagnosis?
Let us know how her EEG went and hope she gets better.
it could be epilepsy.
I concur that this sounds like a seizure. I am glad she is getting an EEG. Be vigilant about following up with the pediatrician and any specialists. I am sending good thoughts your way. It is so hard when your baby is sick.

Did she recently receive any vaccinations??? Some of the symptoms sound like what others have posted after an adverse reaction......... Just a thought.
