My baby is four and a half months old and cannot cross her arms. When I hold her against my chest, if I intentionally pull her hands together, there is resistance from her shoulder and elbow joints, and she cries. There may be high muscle tone, but I cannot be sure if it is cerebral palsy. I need to take her to a pediatric neurorehabilitation department for a comprehensive checkup to see if there are any abnormal reflexes, thumb adduction, stiff feet, external rotation of the upper and lower limbs, etc. If necessary, a brain CT scan may also be required. Even if there are abnormalities, it cannot be definitively diagnosed as cerebral palsy; it can only be said that there is a central coordination disorder. The golden period for rehabilitation treatment is before six months of age, so it is important to get an early checkup and diagnosis.
