Baby brain freeze

I shared some frozen yogurt with my daughter last night—vanilla topped with blueberries and strawberries. She loved it so much she was licking the spoon in search of more.
I gave in and accidentally a big heap on the spoon all fell into her mouth. I was waiting for the brain freeze to take hold followed by a hysterical crying fit. But nothing. She swallowed said heap and looked at me with her big blue eyes for more.
The fact that she didn’t get brain freeze made me wonder if babies are susceptible to it. I’m sure they are but haven’t found any evidence of it yet. None of my co-workers—with young children—said they’ve experienced it either.
A google search only came up with a bunch of youtube videos, mostly of parents laughing at their children eating icy treats.
This one and this one I thought were pretty funny. Since it’s that time of year to break out the ice-cream cones and popsicles, feel free to share your baby brain freeze experiences.
