daughter jerking neck

My 8 month old daughter has recently started to make sudden jerking movements with her neck. She does this while crawling and also while sitting. Her neck will jerk downward or up either to the left or right. She has been developing normally so far, but these sudden jerking mevents have me very concerned.

no, I just noticed it yesterday, I didn't know if I should take her in or not. But it bothers me.It looks as if the movements are uncontrolled.
