Has anyone here ever dealt with their baby having episodes that look like either night terrors or seizures? I've been doing a lot of research and it looks like it can be really hard to distinguish the right diagnosis between the two ... Mowgli does have a neurology appointment coming up in September but I thought I would ask if any other Mama's have had this experience.
Talking about these episodes with my SO, he thinks they're night terrors but I believe that they are seizures because he also sleeps really warmly and turns red and sweats before he wakes up and then he seems confused for a while after the episode. I've witnessed him have staring episodes sometimes throughout the day but my SO refuses to think that there is anything wrong but as a mama of course I'm going to worry about it and seek out every possible answer because God knows he doesn't have them all

When my son had seizures he would have convulsions, he would foam at the mouth, get really stiff, his eyes would roll back in his head, he would turn pale and sometimes stop breathing.
There are silent seizures as well but to me what you described sounds like night terrors.

He does have convulsions stiff limbs and his eyes roll but it usually only lasts between 10- 40 seconds... I've seen these episodes more than my so becayse they happen during naptime mostly. Sometimes at night but not often at night. The episodes have seemed to taper off as ges gitten older but it definitely still has me worried. Night terrors suck as does any form of epilepsy so my heart hurts when I see him having these episodes. He doesn't start crying until after he convulses and becomes more aware of his surroundings :/ I have night terrors so hopefully its the lesser of two evils :\

My daughter had seizures at a young age i never knee it wad a seizure until emt told me it was. She was calm and staring in one spot stiff not shaking not foaming nothing. She also has night terrors and that is wayyyy different then any seizure. She wakes up screaming crying nothing settled her down we couldnt snap her out of it she had to come out herself i mean it was terrible !! The staring episodes i would definitely get checked but the night terrors nothing we can do and as moms we are terrified i freak out everytime still but remain calm and your doinh right whether hubby things otherwise. My husband tells me my kids dont need stitches and they end up needing them nothing like a bandaid wont cure lol hes a man they want nothing wrong with their children where the mamas are the worry warts !! Good luck give update
