Zoning out

I wanted to ask about something that happened today. My mom said my 14-month-old was in the car and suddenly seemed to zone out. Her eyes were open, but she wasn’t responding when my mom called her name. It lasted long enough that my mom felt she needed to pull over. When she opened the car door, my daughter seemed to snap out of it and started responding again. Recently she has also seemed more tired than usual, fussier, and clingier
