Awareness of hands/arms - but shaking/shuddering

[MummyNaomi]

I've noticed during the last few days that my little boy seems to have developed an awareness of his hands, but have also noticed that sometimes when he flails them about - eg prior to a feed or during a nappy change, it appears that he is shaking them (more like a shudder actually). The first time I noticed this was during a night time bum change and thought he was just shaking with cold, but have noticed it more since

Is this normal, I thought perhaps his hand/arm movements have changed a bit as he tries to control them?

Anyone experienced this?

Cheers

I think its normal - my nephew does it all the time, especially when he gets excited! He's 7 1/2 months, so I think its just that he doesn't know how to wave his arms yet, KWIM?
