mommy my head is shaking!

My almost 4 yr old has told me several times during the past year out of the blue, " Mommy, my head is shaking!" as she puts her hands on her head and grirmaces.When I look at her I see no movement at all, but she complains that it feels bad. It only lasts a few seconds and then goes away and she carries on normally. She is a very healthy kid, so this kind of concerns me. Today it happened when she was sitting down painting. Does anyone have any idea what could be going on? I don`t know if I am making a bid deal of this for nothing or if I should be going to a neurologist. She just had a physical check up with the family doc in December and all was well.
I would appreciate any kind of feedback. Thanks!

This complaint should not be ignored. Inform her pediatrician - he may well suggest a consult with a pediatric neurologist and perhaps an EEG.
