What are the symptoms of cerebral palsy in babies?

Patient's question:

My baby is just 2 months old, and I've noticed that he always likes to tilt his head back. I heard from others that it might be due to cerebral palsy. What are the symptoms of cerebral palsy in babies?

Doctor's answer:

The symptoms of cerebral palsy in children are manifested as follows: newborns often cry less, move less, have weak crying voices, and are excessively quiet; feeding difficulties postnatally; coordinated and asymmetrical movements. Once a child is diagnosed with cerebral palsy, parents must bravely face the situation, enabling them to survive, become self-sufficient, and even understand and be taught to eventually independently take on a role in which they excel in their own training. During treatment, patients need to follow a disciplined diet, maintain regular routines, actively participate in physical exercise, regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened resistance.
