8 months old arm flapping - concern

[kirmal12]

My LO has started in the last couple of weeks at night doing this strange thing with his arm when he is gearing up to scream for his bottle, it's what wakes me up. Its a rhythmical thud thud thud thud, do you think this is the same kind of thing your little one does? (this only at night though)

No its not like this, Riya moves her arms up and down quite slowly and also looks at her hands quite alot. Its a different type of movement to when she's excited which is when she flaps them quickly.

My LO flaps his right arm LOADS at the moment, both when he's excited and at other times (feeding etc) x
