Migraine is common in childhood, but it is uncommon in the first 2 years of life. We report two cases of migraine that began in children under 18 months of age.
Report of Cases.
—Case 1.
After a normal birth and development, a few weeks after the age of 1 year, a male infant began to have attacks of "whining, being fussy, and whimpering"; then holding his head, wanting to be held, moving his head back and forth; and then vomiting for a half hour to an hour. That was followed by some more whimpering and then going to sleep for 2 to 3 hours and awakening asymptomatic. At the age of 4 years, he was having headaches every 4 to 6 weeks, lasting for 2 hours. His mother reported that she had headaches without aura but with nausea and vomiting, the headaches lasting for 4 hours at a time.
