I have noticed this off and on for the past week or so. Every now and then, when I get D up from his nap or in the mornings, he is shakey. Mostly I see it in his hands/arms. At first I thought maybe it was low blood sugar, since I first saw it in the morning after an 11+-hour sleep. But I noticed it this afternoon after his nap, when he'd eat just before going down (and he'd eaten really well - pasta with meat sauce and blueberries and cherries). Has anyone else experienced this with their LOs?

N was like this too! I took him to get his blood sugar checked. It ended up just fine. The best they could tell me is he was really excited or he was a little chilled. It passed pretty quickly tho! It never hurts to ask the doctor.

@littlebug: I've only seen LO do this when he has a fever (probably from the chills).
-
E's did this last week when he was feverish.

@Pepper: @lovehoneybee: Definitely no fever.
@MrsRcCar: I thought it might be low blood sugar, too, especially since the first time I noticed it was in the morning after a long sleep. But the second time was after a 2-hour nap, and he ate lunch right before nap. I still may ask to get his bgs tested, but I don't know if that's it.
He has gotten what we call "chills" since he was very young - like 3 or 4 months - they are random little whole-body shakes that look like he's getting a chill. Our ped even commented on it once, but I blew it off because I have gotten them for as long as I can remember and they've never caused me any problems. But combined with these tremors, I'm really starting to worry that this is a neurological issue!

@littlebug: I do something like that when I wake from a really good sleep. It's like my body needs a couple min to fully realize I'm waking up.

This happens to me if I'm woken up. I also notice that if I have to wake L up from a nap, it happens to him too, but if he has time to wake up himself it doesn't happen.
I think it's just from being woken from a deep sleep.

My LO does is every time she wakes up in her car seat. Never in her crib, just the seat. It's weird.
