Question

Our 3.5 month baby likes to slams his legs while sleeping. is it normal?

Answer 1

my son is 3 and still does this.  i am concerned because now he has a speech delay.  i am hoping this wasn't the start of a red flag for something going on nerologically.  not sure.  :(

Answer 2

my 5 months old baby boy, kicks his sheets alot, and when i resist putting them off he also refuses to stop kicking until he cries. he only stops kicking when i pull the sheets off

Answer 3

Mine does the same (also 3.5 months).  We found if we hold his legs down (or tuck them in with a sheet) he goes back to sleep quicker  :)
Hopefully it will go away soon cos it wakes him up.  I reckon it's either wind or just for fun but not harmful.

Answer 4

We have boy/girl twins that are now adjusted age 7 months.
Both of them kick a lot, our boy more. Yesterday he turned completely around from all his kicking in his crib.

I don't know if it's normal or not, but I would think it is. I haven't asked the Dr. yet.

Answer 5

It cant be normal, im about to be 20 years old and i've been doing the same thing since I was 12... Lifting my legs and slamming them down, sometimes its light but other times it's real aggresive, but i've never been aware of me doing that, i'm completely asleep... I even banged my legs on metal and wood frames, nothing, I don't even feel it happening, i'm still trying to find answeres as to why that is... I get so exhausted during the day and sometimes I even get sore in my lower back and thighs like I just ran a marathon

Answer 6

My baby has always done this he is now 5 months old - is it trapped wind ?
