Patient's question:
Recently, I've noticed that every time I pick up the baby, she always lifts her head up. But since she's so small and always doing this, I'm a bit worried about other potential issues. I'd like to ask, is it normal for a one-month-old baby to lift her head up?Doctor's answer:
The baby can lift its head at one month old, which indicates that the baby is healthy, has no calcium deficiency, and is not related to cerebral palsy. Children with cerebral palsy cannot lift their heads. It is caused by severe brain hypoxia at birth. Please don't overthink it. Don't be nervous. As long as the baby is in a good mental state, eating and sleeping normally, there will be no problem. If you don't believe me, you can go to the local pediatric hospital for a check-up, and then you will know. Usually, we should pay close attention to various symptoms of the child so that treatment can be provided in a timely manner.
