Question

The baby is already four months old and has a slightly chubby body, but seems reluctant to lift their head. Although the baby is capable of lifting their head, they show a lack of enthusiasm. Is this related to their weight? How should one handle a situation where a four-month-old baby doesn’t like to lift their head?

Answer

Hello, it is recommended that you strengthen the neck muscle training for the baby in daily life, and as time goes by, the baby’s ability to lift their head will gradually improve. When conducting head-lifting training, be sure not to overexert the baby and maintain a gentle approach initially. Once the baby learns to roll over, they will naturally start to lift their head, which is a natural process of growth and development. If you still feel concerned, consider taking the baby to the hospital for a professional check-up.
