HELP one baby isn't doing well --has a 'flailing head'

Lindsay78 Jul 27, 2003 04:08 PM

I don't know how to describe it.
The baby just started doing this.
and i'ts scaring the crap outta me.
It just keeps it's head in one position (up right) and everytime it trys to move, it does one of those 'stevie wonder' head bobs ... Like it's off balance.
What is this a deficiency in?
HELP!!!!
I'm in the middle of moving, and I just put away the vitmain drops ...
This poor ltitle baby.
HELP!!!

I think it's called star gaze syndrome they look up in the air, and really have a loss of balance somtimes rolling over. I forget what caused this, but if I were you I would post this back at the top of the forum. It may be serious if I remember correctly. Maybe you can get help for this if it's still happening by posting at the top. If not I would get to a knowledgable herp vet for help. Good Luck.
