My son had 2 febrile seizures about a year apart. They definitely say these are not dangerous seizures and it made me feel crazy for staying up all night long watching him every time he had a fever. It drove me into therapy. I didn’t have another baby for 6 years out of fear. And everyone made me feel like I was a paranoid “first time mom” but when they have the first one with no symptoms prior and you think you are watching the passing of your child it changes something in you. My son didn’t breathe when he had his and I always thought if he had one in his sleep and I didn’t wake up I could lose him. I’m so sorry for the parents. These seizures normally happen before you even know they are sick. We need more awareness about fevers and febrile seizures, I meet so many people who never heard of it
@@mom2mmptThankfully, I think this mom did not lose her child. She was just sharing her experience having a child with febrile seizures. It is likely her determined monitoring that kept her son alive!
There's a cousin in my family who experienced febrile seizures as an infant around the age of 8-9 monthes. However, they didn't take her life in the literal sense. She kept having them, and they got worse. They got so bad that her seizures started robbing her of oxygen regularly. Long story short, she lost most of her brain function, regressed severely, and now is a 14 year old with the functionality of a 3 month old baby. These seizures are no joke, and the pediatric medical community should be putting more importance on monitoring them.
@crunchysocialisthippie My son is 100% unvaxxed. He's 8 now but when he was 18 months he had a seizure. It was out of the blue. No fever and then, bam! high fever. Dr said he had an ever-so-slight ear infection but otherwise, they had no clue what caused it. He never had another seizure after that, thankfully.
@@backyardrebel2149my daughter, vaxxed, 8 febrile seizures by the age of 18 months. My son, unvaxxed, 2 by the age of 18 months. Some families are predisposed. We need to ensure we choose what’s right for the child.
I was just watching a mother on a Facebook video yesterday talking about how she woke up to find her toddler dead and she had no illnesses. Just a history of febrile seizures. Then today I see this video. My daughter had a febrile seizure at 6 months old and it was the scariest thing in the world. I pray they continue to research this and spread awareness.
That nursery video broke my heart. He was so loved. I'm glad he had mommy kisses still warm on his head before he left. I don't know how these parents are getting through this, but they are amazing, strong, and wonderful parents of beautiful, smart, funny babies. This is so unfair.
My son had a febrile seizure as a toddler. I'm so thankful he's still here with us, and my condolences go out to all the families who've lost a child to SIDS
my oldest had febrile seizures, watching this sent shivers up my spine. We're one of the lucky ones, she's doing fine and is almost 20. Science is amazing, my heart goes out to the families whose children didn't make it.
I survived dying as a toddler. I was 1 year old and stopped breathing in my mom’s car. My older sister told my parents and my dad; who at the time was a retired respiratory therapist saved my life with CPR. I’m very grateful I was saved from ending up on the morning news.
I worked as an EMT for only 2 years and I had 3 of these calls. Its really hard to describe how horrible those 3 calls were. The first of those 3 calls unfortunately ended up not being the last time we went to that house as the mother of the child attempted suicide several times after the death of the infant before she was able to take her own life. All of these families were normal suburban middle class white picket fence households. This affects all people of all backgrounds. I’m glad that they have finally made some headway with research and hopefully prevention.
Weird you had to explicitly say they were middle class and “white picket fence” - as if this had happened to working class people or minorities - it would have been any different?? Sounds like a dog whistle. If it’s “normal suburban families” they are blameless. But if it happened somewhere else we could blame the parents? Very weird detail to add.
This gives hope and will hopefully save the lives of these precious little ones. It's been known for years that many forms of epilepsy and seizures are associated with sudden unexplained deaths. It's good to see that there are options for parents to help prevent this. My heart goes out to this family on the loss of their adorable son/brother. May God be with them and give them hope for an eternal reunion with him one day. God bless.
I didn't hear anything in this report that prevents the seizure, just that maybe catching it can help. And do what? Will the EMT's give the baby oxygen? Will the ER shoo the parents away? Why are the kids having them in the first place? Should they be on anti seizure meds til they get older? This report sounds like the main progress is to say yes a baby can die from them, but then what? Or what of the child permanently damaged by oxygen deprivation as one in this comment section shares happened to her relative.What causes a developing baby such internal dysregulation?
@@hlw1306 This type of seizure is fairly common in children and as stated, is normally nothing to worry about. They can be triggered by fever or other illnesses. There are medications that can be given on an emergency basis via nasal spray or liquid. Seeing the frequency by monitoring is important as some may not be noticed and once the brain starts seizuring, they can increase in frequency and intensity, spreading to other areas of the brain that control breathing or go from a partial to a convulsive seizure, which depending on the duration, can result in death. Yes, if these seizures are frequent, an anti-convulsive medication is indicated. Children will normally grow out of this type of seizure and not be considered as having lifelong epilepsy, some don't. Learning the triggers are also important in management of them. People with epilepsy are living very productive lives with proper medical interventions.
Umm… why are we not talking about the obvious? I had a febrile seizure when I was about a year and a half old… as a direct result of a smallpox vaccine. I was hospitalized for a couple of days. I don’t remember it at all, but I know about it because my mom wrote it down.
Cos they're "safe and effective" thou shalt not question them. They'll never admit the risks. Parents need to inform themselves, and look at the inserts 😢
I’m an ED nurse. Every child I’ve attended that’s had a febrile seizure has had one a day to a week or so after being vaccinated per parents report. Causation or correlation? I have no idea. Just reporting my observations “from the field”
This happened with my son within hrs of his mmr, it was terrifying and the Drs just blew it off! My perfectly healthy, never had any issues, son was now seizing and nobody helped. I lost so much trust in the system. We stopped all shots and never looked back! We now see a naturopath and my other two children are unvaccinated and 💯 healthy. It's criminal how they treat parents.
Glad another mother says her children are unvaxxed and healthy. My son is also unvaxxed and he's 18 months. He is healthy and living life to the fullest!
I just can’t imagine going to my baby’s crib and find that they had not lived through the night. My heart gets sick just thinking about it. My heart and love and condolences go out to all the families that have lost a child in this way. ❤
My daughter had a febrile seizure when she was a year old. The doctors told me that this was hereditary and asked if any of us had them as a child. My mom told me I had a couple growing up. New parents of babies ask your parents if anything like this has happened to you and just be aware of your little ones. Being sick with a fever isn’t unusual for little ones but note NEVER miss a dose of medicine. And I choose Motrin vs Tylenol, works better for high temp fevers.
Febrile seizures are caused by spikes in fevers, not the high temp itself. A child predisposed to febrile seizures may have a temp of 102.4 that slowly rose overnight and be just fine, but will seize if it jumps from 99.1-101.6 in 30-60 minutes. Also, many doctors are now recommending not medicating a fever if the child isn't in pain, as fevers up to 102.2 are part of the immune response, not harmful to the child. So parents should talk to their pediatrician about over the counter fever reducers, when it's most beneficial to use them, and whether a fever reducer wearing off could result in a fever spike that causes a febrile seizure in children with a genetic history of them.
No. Watch fevers like a hawk but don't medicate unless it goes too high. I am on high alert when my kids have fevers and give them all my attention. But fevers ARE good for the illness. That's how the human body gets rid of illness. If you prevent that from happening, the fever can spike even higher because that's what it needs to do to get rid of the illness.
My child had febrile seizures and first thing the er asked was if she was recently vaxxed. Don’t bs me that vax have nothing to do with this. FIRST question they asked me.
Nothing like this should EVER be scoffed at and waved away like it’s nothing, like nothing will happen. If there’s a possibility of death, it should be the doctor’s responsibility to talk about it. Period. I’m so sorry you lost your little boy. My heart breaks for you.
What causes the seizures in the first place? I know a few kiddos who had seizures after having a certain thing done at a well child visit with a sharp pokey thing.
400 families a year they said millions of sharp pokey things. It’s really not even a correlation that could be construed as causation with those statistics. Do we need more research on the effects and timing in development for vaccines? absolutely, but throwing out the whole thing is kind of like buying a titanium roof to protect my house from a meteor strike.
It starts with D and ends with TaP. Spikes of SIDS at 2,4, and 6 months, with 90% occurring by 6 months. Wonder what happens around those ages… Do they… Go in for a “well” check? ✅
There will never be that research, because the same people responsible for researching are the people funding said research! They will find the outcomes they want! 💸
As a Pediatric resident doc very early in my career, this video was so heartbreaking to watch but also very inspiring to change how I will approach simple febrile seizures. In med school, I was taught that simple febrile seizures are truly harmless, and it was completely unnecessary to do anything about them beyond tight fever control. WE WERE EXPLICITLY TAUGHT TO DISCOURAGE PARENTS FROM ALL OF THESE EXTRA MONITORS! As “extensive research” showed they have not lead to any benefit in death prevention, but lead to increased parental anxiety and increased clinic visits as parents over analyze the small normal changes in oxygen levels. Idk if these monitors are in fact the answer or if I would recommend them if they truly have not led to changes in death rates, but I will for sure keep up with ongoing research on this topic, and stop viewing febrile seizures as being so benign…. And hate to admit I have definitely been taught to tell parents “if a kid had to get some type of seizure, this is the type you would want as it is so benign.” Feel horrible if that is not the case… Thank God for ongoing learning!!! My heart goes out to this family and so many in the comments ❤
This is exactly what our pediatrician said to us when our son had his first seizure… and then it happened again 😢 He has not had one in over a year but I worry for him just the same as if it were yesterday.
Yeah, I do the opposite of what the medical system decrees the people. The mothers probably had something.. in the past few years and well, would you just look at this.
The thing is, the absolutely vast majority of febrile seizures is benign. These are the horrible but thankfully few cases where it's not. I have a family member whose anxiety has gone through the roof due to using one of these foot monitors with multiple false alarms each night. Could a monitor have helped this specific family? Maybe. But scaring already anxious parents that their child may die, and recommending products that increase that anxiety by giving off many false alarms is wise in my opinion.
My experience with the owlet monitor was excellent. There were a couple of times the alarm went off when the sock monitor needed to be adjusted. Not a big deal. Some parents say it’s too hard but I would rather get up once in awhile for a false alarm than miss my child needing medical assistance and being unaware. The monitor helped in knowing my kid’s resting heart rate. It was helpful information in understanding if my child was sick with something or not and to look at previous nights to see when it started. It was once useful to my child’s pediatrician! It seems like a reasonable, affordable option for parents who have a child with a condition that is likely harmless but a tiny percentage deadly.
@@juliee8897 my friend, go to med school and then you can do your own research about the safety of vaccines. Otherwise, stop trying to push your incorrect beliefs on people when it's not the topic of discussion at all.
Post Covid vaccine too. They are trying too hard to make “sudden death” a normal thing. It’s NOT. Heart breaks for this family. Beautiful little boy. They may not have taken an 💉. Who knows
My nephew experienced the fever. Seizures. Fortunately survived but onset later with diabetes. naturally getting childhood infections allows the immune system to gain experience. Parents can learn what to give a jabbed child holistically to detox and support innate immune system, perhaps. I am mmr and HEPB injured in my 30s and disabled by my 50s. Thankfully my symptoms were sudden, then gradually deteriorating.
Yes. There's something to it. I did mountains of research and decided not to vaccinate my kids. Husband has a PhD in bioinformatics and he's the one who convinced me something was off with all these shots. Plain as day. The data doesn't lie, but the people pulling the strings sure like to hide it!
Where are the studies on children that follow the childhood vaccine schedule vs ones that don’t??? I’m sure there would be some hard evidence there to solve their “mystery”.
I’m so sorry for this horrendous loss and unimaginable pain. The pulse oximetry booties have been around for a while. I know my 7 and 5 year old granddaughters had them as infants. They were taken off the market a few years ago for being touted as “a medical device”, but the company did their due diligence and testing and passed the tests, so they are back on the market now. They may not have been available to this family when they needed it most. Heartbreaking.
Thank you for that information. Could you post this information in the main comments section? Some one might miss this information and it may save multiple lives. I know what I will start giving this device for baby shower gifts now.
Breathing monitors were available to these parents because I used one (Angelcare flat pad monitor) on my own son 16 years ago. It went off twice during the prime SIDS months (2-4 months) and I was so thankful to have it because I don't believe my son would be here without it. It blows my mind how any parent in this day and age can go without using a breathing monitor when there are so many options out there yet there are still so many parents who don't. My heart goes out to these parents though, as they lost their little one at the age of 17 months and I bet very few parents are using breathing monitors past the age of one. I know I didn't use mine because SIDS has always been something that happened mostly before the age of six months. I think based on this study, pediatricians need to be educating all parents on the risks and encouraging the use of breathing monitors until at least two years of age. A breathing monitor is a simple safeguard against such a tragic loss.
Unfortunately even if they were available pretty much no medical professional will warn you that you should use one. We were told "The bed is the safest place to have a seizure" and that febrile seizures are common and go away on their own. If you google febrile seizures, nothing about SUDC comes up, nothing about risk of death. The problem isn't a lack of devices, it's messaging.
I feel like most pediatricians these days actually advise against using breathing monitors because they say it can make you too lax and reliant on them. They say the best thing is to sleep with the baby in the same room, very close to your bed for easy monitoring, but not actually in your bed with you. I'm personally for breathing devices together with good monitoring practices, but this is the info I've heard so many times now in my own research on the subject.
@@heatherronanGlad that you were aware of such things, but your forgetting that these doctors want to tell you that these seizures are not that dangerous, and will go away on its own, and don't bother to mention of anything about the booties, or other devices, so with that being said, some parents wouldn't know if the doctor doesn't seem too concerned or mentions it, and there isn't really any information about these devices when you look up febrile seizures. So how could it possibly blow your mind that some parents don't know about it?
So, maybe stop telling people their babies having "febrile seizures" with their vaccines is harmless. Nobody with any sense really believed that but people need to know they need to really watch their kids.
My daughter has this sock that lets her know if her kids heart rate or oxygen is off. It also alerts her if they wake and are restless. This sock is by far one of the best things she got for her babies.
So in babies doctors will say seizures with no obvious cause are of no concern. But in pets, veterinarians will run countless tests and exams and conduct observations over periods of time when there are seizures without a clear cause. This needs to be taken seriously. Just be sure something in common doesn’t mean if is normal or healthy. ❤
If it is the vaccines we’re pushing into kids too early and too quickly, what is the rate of injury compared with the whole population? What are the legal options for the families?
I knew a kid that had febrile seizures, she’s a 40+ yr old adult now. I was a kid the first time I saw it and it’s really horrifying to witness. She continued to have them up until adolescence, which isn’t usual. Seeing an 8yr old drop and eyes roll into the back of her head is really scary to see. But she was one of the younger of 12 kids in her family and so whenever she was sick someone slept with her in order to catch & deal with the overnight seizures so they weren’t missed. In the winter the window stayed open in the room she slept in and summer the AC cranked up in the room she slept in. Both were to help keep her from overheating with a fever, which would inevitably send her into a febrile seizure. She also had to be on a strict Tylenol/Motrin schedule to ensure they were catching the fever before it got too high. And they had to always have a big pot of Ice water on hand and rags to put on her pressure points were the ultimate treatment when the meds failed to control her fever spikes, as soon as they detected her body heat rise or the seizure started she had to be doused with ice water to get that fever down as quickly as possible, in whatever way necessary. An old doctor, 40yrs ago, was the one who recommended all of this and I believe it absolutely did save her life.
This is funny because I too had fever seizures (what we called them) until I was almost 5 and this is the same thing my mom did for me. She would make me stand in a cold shower instead of ice water , she said an old nurse at the hospital told her all of the same things and to keep me cold until the tylenol/motrin kicked in. I was like 3 months the first time it happened and I'm in my 40's now.
It's heartbreaking, I was 13 yrs old when I lost my niece she was 2 months it's something I'll never forget 💔💔 she would have been 27 yrs old 😔😔 r.i.p Valeria
I'm so glad to see more people waking up. The comments give me hope. We almost lost our son within hrs of his mmr. I will forever shout it from the rooftop, don't 💉
I would like to know if their studies of these children who 'died suddenly' includes whether or not they received any vaccines? And if so, how many, and what the timeframe was from each vaccine given? Also, what type of vaccines were given?
Good news for toddlers! What about infants? My baby brother died of SIDS when he was just 19 days old. He was premature but home and healthy. He wasn't having seizures. I hope the research continues and expands!
Well they do how to prevent it. Having babies sleep on their backs, no smoking,breastfeeding,etc. what causes it they don’t know yet. They will hopefully find out one day.
@@nancyfarkas3592 That's not true. My brother slept on his back. My mom breastfed. My parents don't smoke. SIDS is tragic. Healthy infants die for no scientifically apparent reason even when you do everything you're told to do.
They werent healthy if they died suddenly unfortunately. Just because we can't see it doesn't mean there isn't a problem.. our bodies are incredibly complex 😢 @Cj-en4fj
I believe there are recent studies that link a chemical imbalance in the brain as being a probable cause for SIDS but there is still more research to be done for a definitive answer.
We need to absolutely look at vaccines. From the NIH(National Library of Medicine) "CONCLUSIONS: There are significantly elevated risks of febrile seizures on the day of receipt of DTP vaccine and 8 to 14 days after the receipt of MMR vaccine".
So some information is lacking. What's the health history of the child? What routine medications/ vaccinations were they taking if at all? These questions need to be analyzed across all similar cases.
My husbands mom and friends parents said their kids had them to the point of hospitalization after their jabby jabbys as babies. There’s a reason they don’t compare the unjabbed to jabbed in all these studies. It’s a BIG reason.
My son stopped breathing after his MMR vaccine and all the nurse did was click a pen in his face. The same pediatric office gave my child a flu shot after I said we didn't want it. He was supposed to get 2 shots that day but the nurse snuck in a 3rd. They have done the same to other children, I see it in the reviews on Google of the pediatrician.
Sooo… what’s the cause ??? Why are they having seizures ? Totally nonsensical title. A lot of us know what the cause is tho - 💉💉💉💉💉 Probably the relentless cdc schedule . When I was young I had maybe 7 total in my entire childhood , now it’s that in the first 2 months of life, and it just keep going. 72 recommended by the time they are 18.
Losing any young child is tragic and devastating. When are parents going to question and reject the ridiculously high number of required childhood vaccines given in the US from infancy through age 18 these days? Very few were given to baby boomers only one generation ago? I saw a chart that showed the number has risen from *6 to 76!* It's absurd and unwise!
In my state of NY a chil will receive 72 doses of 16 vaccines. Criminal! Almost lost my son to his MMR, the Drs wouldn't listen but that was the beginning of my research.
After my son’s booster he had high fevers and seizures. If it had not been for my mother who was an amazing nurse, he would be dead today, she saved his life.
My newborn had this type of electrical shock fever once after a newborn vaccine episode, and for one night she shook her body in tick-modes with eyes that would jolt open in fear. Doctors could not explain it nor the ER. It went away after 8 hours. Horrible experience.
All of my daughters have had repeat febrile seizures. All of them. 9 times in total. Thankfully they all have made it past two years old but I am so angry that my concern and terror at their seizures was completely blown off especially given this new info.
Anyone studying the effects of childhood vaccines? There are so many given to young children. How many seizure deaths in unvaccinated versus vaccinated children? That would be an interesting study...
It’s not healthy for a baby to have seizures at any age, things happen for a reason terrible tragedy of your son may bring hope for another child, I’m terribly sorry for your loss. 🤲❤️
Studies have shown a small increased risk for febrile seizures during the 5 to 12 days after a child has received their first vaccination with the measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine. The risk is slightly higher with the measles, mumps, rubella, varicella (MMRV) combination vaccine, but the risk is still small. Studies have not shown an increased risk for febrile seizures after the separate varicella (chickenpox) vaccine.
So heartbreaking, I can feel the pain of these parents even if I haven't lost a child myself. 💔 I also wonder if co-sleeping would have helped... Instead of monitors and cameras, keep your children close? My toddler sleeps next to me so I hope I will wake up if he is having any troubles.
I wish i could show this to a friend i used to have. She was a DJ at the goth night i went to and she got pregnant by accident but she was a loving and doting mother. She stopped smoking, drinking, and dyeing her hair when she found out she was pregnant and had an adorable baby boy. Then, just after he turned 1 she found him dead in his crib. Bc she had the alt/goth "look" she was heavily scrutinized by the police for the sudden death of her baby. She couldn't even have his body for the funeral... She was eventually cleared but i think it broke her. She ended up having more kids but she was overly protective of them.
My 19 month and 16 day old son (twin) also passed away in his sleep and categorized as SUDC. He never suffered from Febrile seizures (that we know) but his twin sister had her 3rd febrile seizure 3 days before he passed away. Thank you for bringing awareness to SUDC. My hope is that one day no families will suffer this unbearable loss.
I am so glad they are beginning to find answers for these poor families... I am often scared to sleep to make sure my child is breathing. My husband calls me crazy, my parents and in-laws say I am overprotective... I'm not wrong for waking up every so often to check on my baby. This is actually amazing because all those families and current parents kept being told that they were doing something wrong for having things in the crib or just having no reason can now begin to find solace in the fact that they weren't to blame. I think I will definitely get one of those monitors for my next baby. Thank you to all those families and scientists who participated in the study.
My daughter had febrile seizures starting at 18 months. They wanted her on anti-seizure meds and I told the doctor, no way. Her seizures were caused by high temps which were caused by ear infections. Took her to an ear nose and throat specialist who inserted ear tubes and no more seizures. She had then done at 20 months, 3 yrs and 5.
My son is 4 years old and he has had 9 febrile seizures so far since he was 1,5 years old. Yes most of them happened because he had an ear infection. He never sleeps alone at night because I'm so terrified that he will have one during his sleep
@@bluberrimuffins Why on earth have they not inserted ear tubes? As a nurse dealing with physicians, if one doesn’t help your child, move on to another one, till your child’s health has been improved. Not all doctors are alike, some have no business being a physician at all.
The more that society rejects the practice of having their baby sleep in a separate room in a crib alone the more we will see this. Children that young by nature are supposed to be next to their mom when they sleep
Pretty sure there's a reasonable explanation for this phenomenon, but sadly the medication manufacturers in this country will shout down anyone who posits that theory.
Seizures are the potential cause. Yes the majority of children outgrow these seizures but some kids can die from them and that is what they are trying to find out. That is why they want these videos so they can study them and see if they can find out the cause
Of being one of those “kids” that grew out of it thankfully but I’m glad that there is more research going into these febrile seizures that are ending these children
A friend who was a medical professional fully trained and practiced in CPR was holding his infant daughter on his lap when she suddenly stopped breathing and had no pulse. Even with immediate CPR, the child died in his lap before the ambulence arrived. The diagnosis was the inexplicable SIDS.
My son had 2 febrile seizures about a year apart. They definitely say these are not dangerous seizures and it made me feel crazy for staying up all night long watching him every time he had a fever. It drove me into therapy. I didn’t have another baby for 6 years out of fear. And everyone made me feel like I was a paranoid “first time mom” but when they have the first one with no symptoms prior and you think you are watching the passing of your child it changes something in you. My son didn’t breathe when he had his and I always thought if he had one in his sleep and I didn’t wake up I could lose him. I’m so sorry for the parents. These seizures normally happen before you even know they are sick. We need more awareness about fevers and febrile seizures, I meet so many people who never heard of it
💕😢
I'm very sorry for your loss. I am hopeful that researchers are starting to take these more seriously.
@@mom2mmptThankfully, I think this mom did not lose her child. She was just sharing her experience having a child with febrile seizures. It is likely her determined monitoring that kept her son alive!

There's a cousin in my family who experienced febrile seizures as an infant around the age of 8-9 monthes. However, they didn't take her life in the literal sense. She kept having them, and they got worse. They got so bad that her seizures started robbing her of oxygen regularly.

This doesn't sound like a typical febrile seizure. It sounds like grand mal seizures or epilepsy.
Super sad a girl I knew also lost her life in her sleep at 16 she suffered seizures since birth it was so sudden so random it was very sad
@@MNP208I think they diagnose febrile seizures to often and dismiss the chance for more serious issues and conditions
That's sad, but it's possible she has SCN1A mutation. Dravet syndrome.
Febrile seizures are typically caused by fevers. This sounds like other seizures
Any type of seizure is not normal. How can doctors brush it off so lightly and say, "don't worry", like it's a common cold. So sorry for their loss.
You have to always question your physicians and change them if that's what it takes. You are your child's best advocate.

I was just watching a mother on a Facebook video yesterday talking about how she woke up to find her toddler dead and she had no illnesses. Just a history of febrile seizures. Then today I see this video. My daughter had a febrile seizure at 6 months old and it was the scariest thing in the world. I pray they continue to research this and spread awareness.

That nursery video broke my heart. He was so loved. I'm glad he had mommy kisses still warm on his head before he left. I don't know how these parents are getting through this, but they are amazing, strong, and wonderful parents of beautiful, smart, funny babies. This is so unfair.
My son had a febrile seizure as a toddler. I'm so thankful he's still here with us, and my condolences go out to all the families who've lost a child to SIDS
my oldest had febrile seizures, watching this sent shivers up my spine. We're one of the lucky ones, she's doing fine and is almost 20. Science is amazing, my heart goes out to the families whose children didn't make it.
Did you know febrile seizures are associated with the MMR vaccine
I survived dying as a toddler. I was 1 year old and stopped breathing in my mom’s car. My older sister told my parents and my dad; who at the time was a retired respiratory therapist saved my life with CPR. I’m very grateful I was saved from ending up on the morning news.
Glad that your father was in the right place at the right time. This is nice for me to hear, as my mother is a respiratory therapist.
I worked as an EMT for only 2 years and I had 3 of these calls. Its really hard to describe how horrible those 3 calls were. The first of those 3 calls unfortunately ended up not being the last time we went to that house as the mother of the child attempted suicide several times after the death of the infant before she was able to take her own life. All of these families were normal suburban middle class white picket fence households. This affects all people of all backgrounds. I’m glad that they have finally made some headway with research and hopefully prevention.
Thank you for being a first responder. Definitely, not an easy job.
Weird you had to explicitly say they were middle class and “white picket fence” - as if this had happened to working class people or minorities - it would have been any different?? Sounds like a dog whistle. If it’s “normal suburban families” they are blameless. But if it happened somewhere else we could blame the parents? Very weird detail to add.
In 2023 racist people are still using dog whistles 😂😂😂
@@00st307-mYou’re reading way too much into it. That’s on you. Don’t make it about race when you don’t need to.
Sheesh! Reading the comments here doesn’t sound very helpful or uplifting to anyone looking for another to commiserate with. 😔🥺
My son is 11 months old now and I cannot fathom the thought of losing him. Hearing stories like this breaks my heart.
My son is almost 11 months too. I can't neither 🤍
I have a 4 month old, and yeah. I'd protect her with my life. She's the most important thing in the world to me. Any good parent feels like this.
Why do they ask people how it felt? How do they think it felt? Why do that. Why torture the parents?
This gives hope and will hopefully save the lives of these precious little ones. It's been known for years that many forms of epilepsy and seizures are associated with sudden unexplained deaths. It's good to see that there are options for parents to help prevent this.
My heart goes out to this family on the loss of their adorable son/brother. May God be with them and give them hope for an eternal reunion with him one day. God bless.
I didn't hear anything in this report that prevents the seizure, just that maybe catching it can help. And do what? Will the EMT's give the baby oxygen? Will the ER shoo the parents away? Why are the kids having them in the first place? Should they be on anti seizure meds til they get older? This report sounds like the main progress is to say yes a baby can die from them, but then what? Or what of the child permanently damaged by oxygen deprivation as one in this comment section shares happened to her relative.What causes a developing baby such internal dysregulation?
@@hlw1306 This type of seizure is fairly common in children and as stated, is normally nothing to worry about. They can be triggered by fever or other illnesses. There are medications that can be given on an emergency basis via nasal spray or liquid. Seeing the frequency by monitoring is important as some may not be noticed and once the brain starts seizuring, they can increase in frequency and intensity, spreading to other areas of the brain that control breathing or go from a partial to a convulsive seizure, which depending on the duration, can result in death.
Yes, if these seizures are frequent, an anti-convulsive medication is indicated. Children will normally grow out of this type of seizure and not be considered as having lifelong epilepsy, some don't. Learning the triggers are also important in management of them.
People with epilepsy are living very productive lives with proper medical interventions.
But they never talk about the actual cause of the seizures.
Umm… why are we not talking about the obvious? I had a febrile seizure when I was about a year and a half old… as a direct result of a smallpox vaccine. I was hospitalized for a couple of days. I don’t remember it at all, but I know about it because my mom wrote it down.
It was the MMR for my son.
Cos they're "safe and effective" thou shalt not question them. They'll never admit the risks. Parents need to inform themselves, and look at the inserts 😢
The crazy vaccine schedule should be a clue.
Absolutely! In my state of NY it's 72 doses of 16 pokes.
I’m an ED nurse. Every child I’ve attended that’s had a febrile seizure has had one a day to a week or so after being vaccinated per parents report. Causation or correlation? I have no idea. Just reporting my observations “from the field”
Exactly
I am also a nurse and I absolutely agree.
This happened with my son within hrs of his mmr, it was terrifying and the Drs just blew it off! My perfectly healthy, never had any issues, son was now seizing and nobody helped. I lost so much trust in the system. We stopped all shots and never looked back! We now see a naturopath and my other two children are unvaccinated and 💯 healthy. It's criminal how they treat parents.
Nothing to do with the 30 shots and the new ones .
Glad another mother says her children are unvaxxed and healthy. My son is also unvaxxed and he's 18 months. He is healthy and living life to the fullest!
What vaccines were they given?????????????????
Probably Covid because some parents are so brainwashed into getting them
I just can’t imagine going to my baby’s crib and find that they had not lived through the night. My heart gets sick just thinking about it. My heart and love and condolences go out to all the families that have lost a child in this way. ❤
My daughter had a febrile seizure when she was a year old. The doctors told me that this was hereditary and asked if any of us had them as a child. My mom told me I had a couple growing up. New parents of babies ask your parents if anything like this has happened to you and just be aware of your little ones. Being sick with a fever isn’t unusual for little ones but note NEVER miss a dose of medicine. And I choose Motrin vs Tylenol, works better for high temp fevers.
Febrile seizures are caused by spikes in fevers, not the high temp itself. A child predisposed to febrile seizures may have a temp of 102.4 that slowly rose overnight and be just fine, but will seize if it jumps from 99.1-101.6 in 30-60 minutes. Also, many doctors are now recommending not medicating a fever if the child isn't in pain, as fevers up to 102.2 are part of the immune response, not harmful to the child. So parents should talk to their pediatrician about over the counter fever reducers, when it's most beneficial to use them, and whether a fever reducer wearing off could result in a fever spike that causes a febrile seizure in children with a genetic history of them.
No. Watch fevers like a hawk but don't medicate unless it goes too high. I am on high alert when my kids have fevers and give them all my attention. But fevers ARE good for the illness. That's how the human body gets rid of illness. If you prevent that from happening, the fever can spike even higher because that's what it needs to do to get rid of the illness.
My heart breaks for this family. I understand the pain they are going through.
My child had febrile seizures and first thing the er asked was if she was recently vaxxed. Don’t bs me that vax have nothing to do with this. FIRST question they asked me.
Why do you think they asked if it has nothing to do with it??
At least they asked! Within hrs of his mmr my son seized and they wouldn't listen to me. Never again will I trust Drs!
Nothing like this should EVER be scoffed at and waved away like it’s nothing, like nothing will happen. If there’s a possibility of death, it should be the doctor’s responsibility to talk about it. Period. I’m so sorry you lost your little boy. My heart breaks for you.
I’d be curious to see the stats of non-vax kids with this..
The cases are probably very low
Probably non-existent
@@pwmgirl Yep! This is a vax issue. All the vaccines they give to infants...
My eldest seized within hrs of receiving his MMR. My younger two are 💯 poke free and completely healthy.
@@nomadclan3604 I am so sorry to hear that! I hope your child is okay now. It's def the vaccine.
What causes the seizures in the first place? I know a few kiddos who had seizures after having a certain thing done at a well child visit with a sharp pokey thing.
Yes I was one, had seizures for five years after that pokey thing.
Ah Yup.
Yup, Adverse reactions do happen... wonder which vaccine did these children receive at their wellness check up to cause this type of medical outcome 😳
400 families a year they said millions of sharp pokey things. It’s really not even a correlation that could be construed as causation with those statistics. Do we need more research on the effects and timing in development for vaccines? absolutely, but throwing out the whole thing is kind of like buying a titanium roof to protect my house from a meteor strike.
It starts with D and ends with TaP.
Spikes of SIDS at 2,4, and 6 months, with 90% occurring by 6 months. Wonder what happens around those ages…
Do they…
Go in for a “well” check?
✅
Could it possibly be all the vaccines/immunizations they are giving these little babies?…. just a thought
Yep
For sure
So much aluminum. Why do we use aluminum as an adjuvant in vaccines? Why are we injecting our children with aluminum at 24 hours old?!
I hope the possible connection between infant vaccines and seizures is being researched.
Never gonna happen. Pharmaceutical companies and Gates are too powerful.
Absolutely
There is a link but they are covering it up.
They (vaccine companies) are immune from liability. VAERS is wildly underreported. Ask yourself why that is...
There will never be that research, because the same people responsible for researching are the people funding said research! They will find the outcomes they want! 💸
After our daughters routine vaccines she suffered a febrile seizure.
As a Pediatric resident doc very early in my career, this video was so heartbreaking to watch but also very inspiring to change how I will approach simple febrile seizures. In med school, I was taught that simple febrile seizures are truly harmless, and it was completely unnecessary to do anything about them beyond tight fever control. WE WERE EXPLICITLY TAUGHT TO DISCOURAGE PARENTS FROM ALL OF THESE EXTRA MONITORS! As “extensive research” showed they have not lead to any benefit in death prevention, but lead to increased parental anxiety and increased clinic visits as parents over analyze the small normal changes in oxygen levels. Idk if these monitors are in fact the answer or if I would recommend them if they truly have not led to changes in death rates, but I will for sure keep up with ongoing research on this topic, and stop viewing febrile seizures as being so benign…. And hate to admit I have definitely been taught to tell parents “if a kid had to get some type of seizure, this is the type you would want as it is so benign.” Feel horrible if that is not the case… Thank God for ongoing learning!!! My heart goes out to this family and so many in the comments ❤
This is exactly what our pediatrician said to us when our son had his first seizure… and then it happened again 😢 He has not had one in over a year but I worry for him just the same as if it were yesterday.
Yeah, I do the opposite of what the medical system decrees the people.
The mothers probably had something.. in the past few years and well, would you just look at this.
The thing is, the absolutely vast majority of febrile seizures is benign. These are the horrible but thankfully few cases where it's not. I have a family member whose anxiety has gone through the roof due to using one of these foot monitors with multiple false alarms each night. Could a monitor have helped this specific family? Maybe. But scaring already anxious parents that their child may die, and recommending products that increase that anxiety by giving off many false alarms is wise in my opinion.
My experience with the owlet monitor was excellent. There were a couple of times the alarm went off when the sock monitor needed to be adjusted. Not a big deal. Some parents say it’s too hard but I would rather get up once in awhile for a false alarm than miss my child needing medical assistance and being unaware.
The monitor helped in knowing my kid’s resting heart rate. It was helpful information in understanding if my child was sick with something or not and to look at previous nights to see when it started. It was once useful to my child’s pediatrician!
It seems like a reasonable, affordable option for parents who have a child with a condition that is likely harmless but a tiny percentage deadly.
@@juliee8897 my friend, go to med school and then you can do your own research about the safety of vaccines. Otherwise, stop trying to push your incorrect beliefs on people when it's not the topic of discussion at all.
Yes, an Apnea monitor helped me keep my baby . In 1984. She is now a mother of 5 and 40 years old. I’m so glad they have been researching this!!
Praise God 🙌🏾.
It’s weird that many of these stories take place around the age children are due for their MMR. Why are we not allowed to question these things?
$$$$$$$
Say no to vaccines.
Yes
How absolutely heartbreaking 💔😭. RIP dear children.
Seizures are normal? Red flag 🚩
The cause 👉☠️💉💉💉⚰️🪦
We’ve had vaccines for decades, chump.
Interesting. Per the CDC, there's an increased risk for febrile seizures post MMR vaccination...
Yes! It's all the poison jabs! Wake up.
Post Covid vaccine too. They are trying too hard to make “sudden death” a normal thing. It’s NOT. Heart breaks for this family. Beautiful little boy. They may not have taken an 💉. Who knows
My nephew experienced the fever. Seizures. Fortunately survived but onset later with diabetes. naturally getting childhood infections allows the immune system to gain experience. Parents can learn what to give a jabbed child holistically to detox and support innate immune system, perhaps. I am mmr and HEPB injured in my 30s and disabled by my 50s. Thankfully my symptoms were sudden, then gradually deteriorating.
VAERS. It’s not generally an unknown cause. It’s a cause they look away from and deny. I’m so sorry for this family’s terrible loss.
I’m glad to someone in the comments section here as some common sense. It’s scary how people STILL deny this.
Funny how when Japan stopped giving v@x until after 2 years of age their SIDS virtually disappeared
Yes. There's something to it. I did mountains of research and decided not to vaccinate my kids. Husband has a PhD in bioinformatics and he's the one who convinced me something was off with all these shots. Plain as day. The data doesn't lie, but the people pulling the strings sure like to hide it!
Indeed. Clear in simple: no vaccines, no seizures.
Where are the studies on children that follow the childhood vaccine schedule vs ones that don’t??? I’m sure there would be some hard evidence there to solve their “mystery”.
People wake up!! Stop poisoning your kids!! 💉💉💉💉💉💉
Please don’t ever take your unvaccinated kids in public places.
@@nessa4you599 I will

I’m so sorry for this horrendous loss and unimaginable pain. The pulse oximetry booties have been around for a while. I know my 7 and 5 year old granddaughters had them as infants. They were taken off the market a few years ago for being touted as “a medical device”, but the company did their due diligence and testing and passed the tests, so they are back on the market now. They may not have been available to this family when they needed it most. Heartbreaking.
Thank you for that information. Could you post this information in the main comments section? Some one might miss this information and it may save multiple lives. I know what I will start giving this device for baby shower gifts now.
Breathing monitors were available to these parents because I used one (Angelcare flat pad monitor) on my own son 16 years ago. It went off twice during the prime SIDS months (2-4 months) and I was so thankful to have it because I don't believe my son would be here without it. It blows my mind how any parent in this day and age can go without using a breathing monitor when there are so many options out there yet there are still so many parents who don't. My heart goes out to these parents though, as they lost their little one at the age of 17 months and I bet very few parents are using breathing monitors past the age of one. I know I didn't use mine because SIDS has always been something that happened mostly before the age of six months. I think based on this study, pediatricians need to be educating all parents on the risks and encouraging the use of breathing monitors until at least two years of age. A breathing monitor is a simple safeguard against such a tragic loss.
Unfortunately even if they were available pretty much no medical professional will warn you that you should use one. We were told "The bed is the safest place to have a seizure" and that febrile seizures are common and go away on their own. If you google febrile seizures, nothing about SUDC comes up, nothing about risk of death. The problem isn't a lack of devices, it's messaging.
I feel like most pediatricians these days actually advise against using breathing monitors because they say it can make you too lax and reliant on them. They say the best thing is to sleep with the baby in the same room, very close to your bed for easy monitoring, but not actually in your bed with you.
I'm personally for breathing devices together with good monitoring practices, but this is the info I've heard so many times now in my own research on the subject.
@@heatherronanGlad that you were aware of such things, but your forgetting that these doctors want to tell you that these seizures are not that dangerous, and will go away on its own, and don't bother to mention of anything about the booties, or other devices, so with that being said, some parents wouldn't know if the doctor doesn't seem too concerned or mentions it, and there isn't really any information about these devices when you look up febrile seizures. So how could it possibly blow your mind that some parents don't know about it?
I feel the mothers pain of loss 😢
So, maybe stop telling people their babies having "febrile seizures" with their vaccines is harmless. Nobody with any sense really believed that but people need to know they need to really watch their kids.
My daughter has this sock that lets her know if her kids heart rate or oxygen is off. It also alerts her if they wake and are restless. This sock is by far one of the best things she got for her babies.
Do you know where she got it?
The one I've seen the most is called an Owlet Dream Sock. They are somewhat expensive however I feel they are 100% worth the money.
It's interesting how many of these tragedies happen right after the baby vaccinations. 2,4,6 months and 1 year mark. Coincidence right...
Children are injected with insane amounts of aluminum before they even reach age 3
Bingo!! Wake up all you dummies.
He was a beautiful baby boy. So sorry for your loss.
I would say the shots they give ingots have a lot to do with is
There is a small increased risk for febrile seizures after MMR and MMRV vaccines. Which means there is most likely a link
So in babies doctors will say seizures with no obvious cause are of no concern.
But in pets, veterinarians will run countless tests and exams and conduct observations over periods of time when there are seizures without a clear cause.
This needs to be taken seriously. Just be sure something in common doesn’t mean if is normal or healthy. ❤
If it is the vaccines we’re pushing into kids too early and too quickly, what is the rate of injury compared with the whole population? What are the legal options for the families?
I knew a kid that had febrile seizures, she’s a 40+ yr old adult now. I was a kid the first time I saw it and it’s really horrifying to witness. She continued to have them up until adolescence, which isn’t usual. Seeing an 8yr old drop and eyes roll into the back of her head is really scary to see. But she was one of the younger of 12 kids in her family and so whenever she was sick someone slept with her in order to catch & deal with the overnight seizures so they weren’t missed. In the winter the window stayed open in the room she slept in and summer the AC cranked up in the room she slept in. Both were to help keep her from overheating with a fever, which would inevitably send her into a febrile seizure. She also had to be on a strict Tylenol/Motrin schedule to ensure they were catching the fever before it got too high. And they had to always have a big pot of Ice water on hand and rags to put on her pressure points were the ultimate treatment when the meds failed to control her fever spikes, as soon as they detected her body heat rise or the seizure started she had to be doused with ice water to get that fever down as quickly as possible, in whatever way necessary. An old doctor, 40yrs ago, was the one who recommended all of this and I believe it absolutely did save her life.
This is funny because I too had fever seizures (what we called them) until I was almost 5 and this is the same thing my mom did for me. She would make me stand in a cold shower instead of ice water , she said an old nurse at the hospital told her all of the same things and to keep me cold until the tylenol/motrin kicked in. I was like 3 months the first time it happened and I'm in my 40's now.
Wow, thank you for this information! Don’t know why it’s not being talked about more!

Vaccine?

Keep in mind they get 72 prevention juices
I'm so glad to see more people waking up. The comments give me hope. We almost lost our son within hrs of his mmr. I will forever shout it from the rooftop, don't 💉
I would like to know if their studies of these children who 'died suddenly' includes whether or not they received any vaccines? And if so, how many, and what the timeframe was from each vaccine given?
Also, what type of vaccines were given?
My son started seizing within hrs of his mmr. I called the Dr after hrs and they completely blew me off saying it was nothing. It was terrifying!
@@nomadclan3604 That's terrible....... I hope he's ok!
Good news for toddlers! What about infants? My baby brother died of SIDS when he was just 19 days old. He was premature but home and healthy. He wasn't having seizures. I hope the research continues and expands!
Well they do how to prevent it. Having babies sleep on their backs, no smoking,breastfeeding,etc. what causes it they don’t know yet. They will hopefully find out one day.
@@nancyfarkas3592 They can't actually know what prevents it without knowing what it is in anyway.
@@nancyfarkas3592 That's not true. My brother slept on his back. My mom breastfed. My parents don't smoke. SIDS is tragic. Healthy infants die for no scientifically apparent reason even when you do everything you're told to do.
They werent healthy if they died suddenly unfortunately. Just because we can't see it doesn't mean there isn't a problem.. our bodies are incredibly complex 😢 @Cj-en4fj
I believe there are recent studies that link a chemical imbalance in the brain as being a probable cause for SIDS but there is still more research to be done for a definitive answer.
My sons had febrile seizures and I gave them tylenol and kept them cool.
My condolences to the families eho have lost loved ones 😢
Vaccines
Now.... find out if these kids were recently vaccinated.
As I have gotten older I start to trust doctors less and less. Sometimes they seem to guess
We need to absolutely look at vaccines. From the NIH(National Library of Medicine) "CONCLUSIONS: There are significantly elevated risks of febrile seizures on the day of receipt of DTP vaccine and 8 to 14 days after the receipt of MMR vaccine".
So some information is lacking. What's the health history of the child? What routine medications/ vaccinations were they taking if at all? These questions need to be analyzed across all similar cases.
Not rare anymore, and are we REALLY not going to mention the spike in SIDS and SADS since the roll-out of the you-know-what.
Do you know the ingredients of what is injected into their tiny bodies right after birth ?!? 💉
My husbands mom and friends parents said their kids had them to the point of hospitalization after their jabby jabbys as babies. There’s a reason they don’t compare the unjabbed to jabbed in all these studies. It’s a BIG reason.
Interesting how many SIDS deaths occur at the same time as baby vaccinations. 2, 4, 6 months and 1 year mark.
💯
For those who aren’t aware, look up Dr. Bryan Ar dis and his info on this topic.
Aluminum is 1 ingredient
My son stopped breathing after his MMR vaccine and all the nurse did was click a pen in his face. The same pediatric office gave my child a flu shot after I said we didn't want it. He was supposed to get 2 shots that day but the nurse snuck in a 3rd. They have done the same to other children, I see it in the reviews on Google of the pediatrician.
You mean. The jabs?
Sooo… what’s the cause ??? Why are they having seizures ? Totally nonsensical title. A lot of us know what the cause is tho - 💉💉💉💉💉 Probably the relentless cdc schedule . When I was young I had maybe 7 total
in my entire childhood , now it’s that in the first 2 months of life, and it just keep going. 72 recommended by the time they are 18.
Losing any young child is tragic and devastating. When are parents going to question and reject the ridiculously high number of required childhood vaccines given in the US from infancy through age 18 these days? Very few were given to baby boomers only one generation ago? I saw a chart that showed the number has risen from *6 to 76!* It's absurd and unwise!
In my state of NY a chil will receive 72 doses of 16 vaccines. Criminal! Almost lost my son to his MMR, the Drs wouldn't listen but that was the beginning of my research.
After my son’s booster he had high fevers and seizures. If it had not been for my mother who was an amazing nurse, he would be dead today, she saved his life.
My newborn had this type of electrical shock fever once after a newborn vaccine episode, and for one night she shook her body in tick-modes with eyes that would jolt open in fear. Doctors could not explain it nor the ER. It went away after 8 hours. Horrible experience.
Omg that sounds so scary. Sorry you had to go through that but thank God your baby survived
My son had this after his MMR.
75% of SIDS occurs within 7 days of a vax.. 50% within 48 hours. They know this. Emergency personnel know it.
Yea but they’re super safe and effective 😉. My son did too.
I wonder if most of the febrile seizures happen after vaccines.
They did not die from that one thing you cannot say on social media.
All of my daughters have had repeat febrile seizures. All of them. 9 times in total. Thankfully they all have made it past two years old but I am so angry that my concern and terror at their seizures was completely blown off especially given this new info.
Anyone studying the effects of childhood vaccines? There are so many given to young children. How many seizure deaths in unvaccinated versus vaccinated children? That would be an interesting study...
They're all "safe and effective"
I wonder what it could be 💉💉🤔🧐
They should start to look at the vaccine schedule and the correlation to babies with SIDS. Could be a correlation?
How about checking out the baby elephant in the room: vaccinations!
We're not allowed to talk about that. 😡
It’s not healthy for a baby to have seizures at any age, things happen for a reason terrible tragedy of your son may bring hope for another child, I’m terribly sorry for your loss. 🤲❤️
Studies have shown a small increased risk for febrile seizures during the 5 to 12 days after a child has received their first vaccination with the measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine. The risk is slightly higher with the measles, mumps, rubella, varicella (MMRV) combination vaccine, but the risk is still small. Studies have not shown an increased risk for febrile seizures after the separate varicella (chickenpox) vaccine.
That's so sad. Poor Haze. ❤
So heartbreaking, I can feel the pain of these parents even if I haven't lost a child myself. 💔
I also wonder if co-sleeping would have helped... Instead of monitors and cameras, keep your children close? My toddler sleeps next to me so I hope I will wake up if he is having any troubles.
More studies required in this area to save them!
Praying for everyone that has lost a child.
I wish i could show this to a friend i used to have. She was a DJ at the goth night i went to and she got pregnant by accident but she was a loving and doting mother. She stopped smoking, drinking, and dyeing her hair when she found out she was pregnant and had an adorable baby boy.
Then, just after he turned 1 she found him dead in his crib. Bc she had the alt/goth "look" she was heavily scrutinized by the police for the sudden death of her baby. She couldn't even have his body for the funeral... She was eventually cleared but i think it broke her. She ended up having more kids but she was overly protective of them.
Horrible that they put this grieving mother through more pain
Its time to investigate the vaccine schedule. Too many vaccinations in too short of a time period.
I hope they’re working with VAERS to find real answers.
So very sad this even happened
I thought sudden death syndrome was when no prior medical conditions were reported before death. Seizures are certainly something noticeable.
My 19 month and 16 day old son (twin) also passed away in his sleep and categorized as SUDC. He never suffered from Febrile seizures (that we know) but his twin sister had her 3rd febrile seizure 3 days before he passed away. Thank you for bringing awareness to SUDC. My hope is that one day no families will suffer this unbearable loss.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I had a 3rd trimester mischarge. Found out I had febrile seizures.
I am so glad they are beginning to find answers for these poor families... I am often scared to sleep to make sure my child is breathing. My husband calls me crazy, my parents and in-laws say I am overprotective... I'm not wrong for waking up every so often to check on my baby.
This is actually amazing because all those families and current parents kept being told that they were doing something wrong for having things in the crib or just having no reason can now begin to find solace in the fact that they weren't to blame.
I think I will definitely get one of those monitors for my next baby.
Thank you to all those families and scientists who participated in the study.
What happens around the time they have those seasurres? Is it around the time of the wellness visits? Must look further into this.
My daughter had febrile seizures starting at 18 months. They wanted her on anti-seizure meds and I told the doctor, no way. Her seizures were caused by high temps which were caused by ear infections. Took her to an ear nose and throat specialist who inserted ear tubes and no more seizures. She had then done at 20 months, 3 yrs and 5.
Main cause for these seizures is infection, specifically ear infections.
My son is 4 years old and he has had 9 febrile seizures so far since he was 1,5 years old. Yes most of them happened because he had an ear infection. He never sleeps alone at night because I'm so terrified that he will have one during his sleep
@@bluberrimuffins Why on earth have they not inserted ear tubes? As a nurse dealing with physicians, if one doesn’t help your child, move on to another one, till your child’s health has been improved. Not all doctors are alike, some have no business being a physician at all.
So, what causes febrile seizures in infants?
Genetic tendency to get seizures when fever spikes
When temps spike quickly our brains can't cope easily. Any seizure is bad for someone, febrile or not they all do an amount of damage to the brain
It’s a listed side effect of many… things…. Given to kids at these ages.
Exactly!
The more that society rejects the practice of having their baby sleep in a separate room in a crib alone the more we will see this. Children that young by nature are supposed to be next to their mom when they sleep
At least 75% of SIDS occurs within 7 days of a particular medical procedure.. and there's a schedule for these..
Pretty sure there's a reasonable explanation for this phenomenon, but sadly the medication manufacturers in this country will shout down anyone who posits that theory.
What is the potential cause? My daughter had febrile sezuires. She's "grown out" of them and is 4 but still could get them
She literally has
