Question

Can a two-month-old baby already lift their head on their own?

Answer

Generally speaking, most babies can lift their heads independently by the time they are three months old. However, each baby’s development pace is different, and some may be able to lift their heads for a moment at two months. You can try to guide your baby to lift their head by placing them on your chest after they are well-rested and have eaten a meal. Practice this daily, and you’ll likely see your baby lifting their head steadily soon. It’s important to remember that each baby has their own developmental rhythm, so don’t worry too much or force your baby to do movements they aren’t ready for.
