Question
What are the symptoms of cerebral palsy in newborns?
Answer
Newborns may show symptoms as early as a few months after birth that differ from those of typical infants. They often do not smile, have slow movements, and their motor development is slower than usual. This includes lifting their heads, sitting up, crawling, standing, walking, and gripping objects. These symptoms are associated with cerebral palsy, and it is advisable to consult a doctor for assistance.
