When I touch her ear/cheek I can feel a gentle buzzing, vibration.

What could be causing this?? She is not attached to anything electrical.

I noticed it when she came over to me to tell me about ehr drawing . I felt it in her tummy area first, I think, as I had my arm round her, but since I started feeling her to check for the reason for the buzzing I can only feel in in her cheek/face.

I've asked her if she's ok and she says she is.

Is the floor vibrating at all - like the washing machine on in the other room? (sorry if not helpful?!, bit stumped)

We get this on our underfloor heating, and I remember getting it when I had an electric blanket.

How's the bump?

No nothing like that. I thought she was standing on the laptop wore at first, but nope.

Are you sure it is she who is buzzing, and not you?

As Suwoo said, it can be caused by electric blankets. (If it happens when they are switched off, but still on at the mains, then they need urgent repair or replacement!)

I remember feeling strangely buzzy towards the end of one of my pregnancies, and thinking I was lying on the eltctric underblanket - and then remembering that I'd already got rid of it because it was making me buzz. Nothing happened, and eventually the buzzing went away.

She's not got my phone.
We don't own an electric blanket.
or a vibrator

She's not doing it now, luckily. If she does it again I'll take her outside.

I'm pretty sure it's her and not me.

How odd...
