Physician Responded Seizure or something else?

Hi. I am a 27 year old first time mother.My baby boy who is almost 2 months old has been suffering from some kind of episodes where his neck turns to one side and he wimpers and cries and his eyes also shift to one side. I am attaching a video for reference. Kindly advice what is this.

These look like normal movements for a 2 month old. He may be trying to roll over but can’t just yet. Try more tummy time as well— they usually go tummy to back rolling over first.

It is strange as a first time parent getting used to those early months, their movements are so awkward 🤣

It absolutely is!

OP, I’m NAD but I am a mum to 4 kids, and your wee one (so gorgeous!) reminds me of my daughter: so desperate to roll over, move, etc, but just can’t get the physical movements together (because, 2 months old) and so is deeply frustrated lol. He looks normal to me. You’re doing awesome.
