Why do toddlers arch their backs back?

Question

I know sometimes its just b/c they are throwing a tantrum , but like for instance yesterday me, my hubby & kate were at the park & she was just walking along & then suddenly she just started arching her back back & fell to the ground-couldnt really tell if maybe she just lost her balance or maybe its something else?

Answer 1

Why didn't you take her to the dr? I am not a physician, have never claimed to be, and am not trying to pass off a medical opinion,  but if my child did that, I would at least schedule an appointment. It could be any number of things, but the first one that comes to mind is a seizure. If she was walking, and just all of the sudden arched her back and fell, That's what I would have thought. Also you should think about how often this has happened. That's what I would do if it were me. Just my opinion.
