Question
A four-month-old baby is able to lift their head and perform the action of lying on their stomach and lifting their chest, but they can’t turn their head to one side while lying on their stomach, and the lifting action becomes weak and droops shortly after. How should this situation be handled?
Answer
According to the developmental norms of infants, it is usually possible to lift the head by three months of age, which is a normal physical activity. The development of infants should be paid attention to and valued. It is recommended to visit a pediatrician for a comprehensive examination to ensure the normal growth and development of the baby. There are simple and memorable rules for the growth and development of infants: look, then see, then lift the head, stand up, reach out, roll over, sit up, crawl, support standing, and eventually walk independently at one year old.
