7 week old seizures

Take your baby to a neurologist to get CAT scans, EEG's and MRI's. If they do not find anything or you don't like the answers they tell you don't be afraid to find another doctor. Sometimes in infants they are referred to as neonatal seizures. It's more common then one thinks. Don't give up keep looking for answers you deserve
