they will likely tell you to keep her up really late.. sleep deprive her.. then they will put all these sticky leads on her scalp... much scarier looking than it is... and hope that she falls asleep.. it usually only takes about 20 minutes

Re: anyones infant go for an EEG?
I would think it would be a piece of cake for a 4 month old. My younger DD had one just about a year ago when she was 20 mos. old. She was hospitalized due to a seizure for which there was found no cause. As JTK said, there's a few dozen electrodes the tech will place on your DD's head--those are wired to some sort of a machine. I don't think a child your DD's age would have much of a problem simply because she would be too young to go nuts and pull them off.  No pain is involved at all.
Good luck!!

The tech didn't tell us anything immediately, but I guess we were told the next day that the results were normal.
