Hi everyone I am a mom of 5 month of baby daughter, I would like to find out when did your baby has a good neck control. The reason I asked is because my baby girl is 5 months and one week old she doesnt have a very good neck conrtol yet! I heard other moms said that their baby didnt have a good neck control in the end of 5 months or they just recently have a good neck control at 6 months...Some start as early as 4 months...I am just worried please let me know when your baby start having a good neck control??? Thanks Wink

I have heard from other mothers that this is normal for some babies. If you are concerned I would definitely take your child to a doctor or local health center; they are very helpful. Are you giving your baby regular tummy time so they can strengthen their neck?
