Question
Some parents have noticed that their infants have not yet shown the ability to lift their heads, which has raised concerns about the baby’s developmental status. Generally speaking, at what age do babies start to lift their heads? What might it mean if a baby doesn’t lift their head?
Answer
Dear parents, on average, babies begin to learn to lift their heads around three months of age. If your baby has not demonstrated this ability at this stage, it is recommended to take your child to the hospital for a check-up promptly. The examination should include tests for trace elements to confirm whether there is a deficiency of calcium or vitamin D. Early detection and treatment of these issues can help ensure the healthy development of your baby.
