Question

My baby is 85 days old and can roll from lying on their back to their side recently, but they still can’t roll onto their stomach. Moreover, they only roll from the left side and never from the right. Is this normal? Should I be concerned?

Answer

You can use toys to attract the baby and guide them in practicing rolling over. Parents can place the baby on the bed with their face up, then call their name from one side and use a noisy toy to attract their attention. This can help the baby change positions without realizing it. When training the baby to roll over, there are several points to note:

  1. The movements should be gentle to avoid harming the baby or causing discomfort.
  2. Start by controlling the duration and frequency of training, and gradually increase it.
