Question
Is it a problem if a 13-month-old baby can’t stand up but only rolls over?
Answer
For a 13-month-old baby, it is normal to only be able to roll over and not stand up. However, if symptoms such as leg pain, excessive sweating, or cramps are caused by a lack of calcium, further examination and treatment may be necessary. It is recommended that parents take the baby to the hospital for a blood calcium test to help with diagnosis. At the same time, it is advisable to supplement the baby’s calcium intake, such as by giving calcium tablets or increasing foods rich in calcium like fish and bone soup. Additionally, the baby needs adequate rest and nutrition to promote healthy growth.
