This happened to my DS around the same age... but I think you probably don't have the same issue with me.

What I figured out was around this time my mother took a month long trip to Asia to visit family. We ended up asking my mother in law to help care for LO while my mother was gone (since LO was grandma-cared).

My mother in law is Filipino and they have this thing called beautiful eyes they do to all kids. She was totally teaching him that and he would rapidly blink a lot while she was here and after. I didn't know she was teach him that till I talked to her about it. So funny. He stopped blinking so much a few months after she left because we don't do that and didn't encourage it.

After I figured that out I was so relieved.

@iluvboba637: To be honest. I don't think my LO knew he was doing it. I would ask him about it and he would blink a few more times and then look straight at me kind of saying he doesn't understand what I'm asking or saying that he is not.

So it's possible he doesn't know he's doing it and that he picked up from watching someone else do it or from some sort of media.

Edit : He was blinking really rapidly but he was also blinking really hard sometimes too and lot in a row.

I think it's pretty normal for kids to develop mild tics that go away on their own. It could be something like that?
