Lack of information may cause you to worry about their baby. often times isn’t of the baby books that you read while you were pregnant or after your baby was born. If your searching for information on an newborn’s quivering chin, more than likely you won’t find it in any baby books. If you see your baby’s chin quiver (Jaw Quiver), don’t worry it isn’t a sign that they are cold. Their nervous system will continue to develop during the first several months of your baby’s life. After your baby is born their nervous system is still immature. While your baby was still in the womb, they were protected by your amniotic fluid and once they are born they have to quickly adapt to life outside of the womb. But as a mom, simple answers never satisfy us! So, I had a consult scheduled with my paediatrician and she pretty much told me the same thing. I had a chat with a friend who’s a mother of three so she had practically seen everything there was to be seen! She told me it wasn’t anything to worry about and generally a newborn’s chin quivers and that it would go away by the time he was four five months old. But it happened again and it freaked me out. I remember when I noticed the jaw trembling in my son my first instinct was that he must be really cold, I had not really come across anything mentioning chin quivers and I thought it is a normal enough thing. The nurse will tell you that newborn chin quivering is normal symptom if your baby is under three or four months of age. If your paediatrician’s office is anything like ours, it normally takes the nurse at least an hour or longer to get a get a phone call back from the doctor’s nurse. If you feel that your child needs to be seen by a doctor, please contact your child’s doctor or health care provider for an appointment.

As a first time mom, seeing your baby’s chin quiver might make you run and grab the phone or run to the doctor’s office to determine if your baby doesn’t have anything wrong with them.ĭisclosure: This blog post is for informational purposes only.

As a seasoned mom, I knew that this was a normal and that it is caused by a baby’s immature nervous system. I noticed that the baby’s chin was quivering. I was at church on Sunday and was gazing at the newest baby in our extended family.
