Patient's question:
My friend's baby is almost three months old now and still can't lift its head but can roll over. It smiles, can lift its head, and can track objects, but the baby always loves to kick, and its legs seem to have a lot of strength. At what age do babies usually start lifting their heads?Doctor's answer:
Infants typically lift their heads within three months and can support themselves at a 45-degree angle. Generally, babies can slightly lift their heads after two months, but not for very long. Usually, by four months, they become very stable. Your baby is almost three months old and cannot lift their head, but can roll over, which is considered normal.It is recommended to wait for a while and observe. If they still cannot lift their head after three months, it is best to visit a local regular hospital for a trace element check to see if they are calcium-deficient. Pay attention to your baby's rest and provide them with appropriate fluids.
