Question
Lately, I’ve noticed that every time I pick up the baby, she always manages to lift her head. But since she’s so young and does this all the time, I’m worried there might be other issues. I want to know, is it normal for a one-month-old baby to lift their head?
Answer
The fact that a one-month-old baby can lift their head suggests that the baby’s health is good, with no signs of calcium deficiency or cerebral palsy. Babies with cerebral palsy cannot lift their heads. It is caused by severe brain hypoxia during the birthing process. Please do not worry or get tense. As long as the baby is in good spirits, with normal eating and sleeping patterns, there is no problem. If you still have doubts, you can go to the local pediatric hospital for a check-up, and then you will know for sure.
