What are the symptoms of cerebral palsy in three-month-old infants?

Patient's question:

My child is three months old, but it seems like they might have cerebral palsy. However, I haven't taken them to the hospital for a check-up yet. I want to know what symptoms a child with cerebral palsy might have now.

Doctor's answer:

This child is still too young, and the brain has not fully developed yet. Therefore, it is best to determine if there is cerebral palsy after the age of one. Children under one year old can also have developmental issues. In about three months, the child may develop backward. For example, he cannot lift his head well to eat, cannot be made to laugh, and cannot be hugged. It is possible to consider the possibility of cerebral palsy, but the specific situation still needs to be checked at the hospital.
