Baby shivers whenever excited

Hi doctor, My 6-month-old baby shivers whenever he is excited, sees a new toy, familiar faces or before shouting , screaming or playing on his own and thinking of something to express his emotions. Is it a normal behaviour? He is already on calcium and vit D drops. Is it common in babies ? Please suggest.

Baby clothing at night

I have a son who is 12 days old. I stay in Davangere where the temperature is around 24-25 degrees Celsius at night. And we turn on the fan at a lighter speed. He does sweat on his back. How do I cover my baby? Should I cover his head with a cap at night?
