Repetitive facial movements, gazing, strange leg bicycling, muscular tightness, or rhythmic jerking are all symptoms of newborn seizures. Because many of these movements occur in healthy babies, an EEG may be required to determine whether a seizure is to blame. A prenatal diagnosis of epilepsy is possible if two or more seizures occur before age one. These seizures should not go undetected even if they do not cause any visible changes to the brain. A seizure that occurs while the fetus is still in the mother's womb is called antepartum (before delivery). Postpartum (after birth) seizures can occur immediately after childbirth or at any time during hospitalization for the baby. About one in four children will have at least one episode of a seizure by age 14. Seizures that happen before the fifth birthday are called infantile seizures. Children and adults who have had multiple seizures is at increased risk for having another one. If you are pregnant and experience several seizures, your doctor may want to monitor you closer than normal. This is especially true if you have a previous child with epilepsy. You should tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. He or she will help you decide what type of monitoring to do after giving birth and how to take care of you during your pregnancy. It is important to find out what causes seizures in infants and children.
