The baby cannot lift his head for 100 days. Do you know why?

Babies can basically lift their heads when they are 100 days old. However, some parents become anxious when they see that their babies still cannot lift their heads, worrying that there are any problems with the babies. Parenting experts say that this phenomenon is very normal. If you are really worried, you can take your baby to the hospital for a physical examination.

1. The baby cannot lift his head for 100 days

The baby is still young, so don’t be too anxious. The baby is growing every day, and maybe the baby will be able to lift his head in two days. In addition, mom and dad can also help the baby lift his head. Mom can ensure the baby's safety while letting the baby lie on his stomach, and dad can put some sound-making toys in front of the baby to amuse the baby, several times a day, for a few minutes each time.

Second, this situation is not abnormal. Premature babies, weak bodies, calcium deficiency, etc. will show such symptoms.

Guidance:

It is recommended to check the trace elements for your child. If there is no deficiency, there is no need to supplement it. If there is a deficiency, just supplement it accordingly.

3. It is recommended that parents take their babies to check trace elements to see if the baby is calcium deficient. If the baby is calcium deficient, give the baby some calcium and cod liver oil under the guidance of a doctor, and take the baby outdoors to bask in the sun more often.

Guidance:

You can choose a time when your baby is happy to let him lie on his stomach and play, so that he can practice lifting his head. Let your baby lie on his stomach after powdering him after taking a bath. Insist on doing newborn massage and swimming. Pay attention to supplementing your baby with cod liver oil and take your baby out to bask in the sun in the morning.

4. Generally speaking, the baby should be able to lift his head now. If he still can't lift his head now, the first consideration is that he doesn't exercise enough, which will lead to lagging development of gross motor skills.

Guidance:

You can let your baby practice lying on his stomach every day so that he can practice lifting his head. Also, giving your baby more massage can help him lift his head, especially massage the back and spine.
