3-month-old baby does not lift his head during tummy time - #10185
Hello, My baby boy will be 3 months old in five days. When I place him on his tummy, he does not attempt to lift his head at all. Before, he used to move his head from side to side, but now he keeps it mostly turned to one side. When I gently turn his head to the other side, he brings it back to the same side again. I am worried because he is not trying to lift his head during tummy time. Is this normal at this age, or should I be concerned and seek further evaluation? Thank you.
