Babies typically start to turn their head from side to side when lying on their tummy by the end of the first month.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
-
Around the End of the First Month: Most babies develop the ability to briefly lift their head and turn it from side to side while on their tummy. This is an important early milestone in developing neck strength.
-
6 to 8 Weeks: Some stronger and more coordinated babies might even begin to raise their head while lying on their back around this time.
It's important to note that these are general guidelines, and every baby develops at their own pace. If you have any concerns about your baby's development, consult with your pediatrician.
