A. At 3 months old, babies are typically starting to develop basic motor skills, including turning their head to one side and trying to lift their head while lying on their tummy. However, if your baby is not attempting to move or turn to one side, it could be due to a few reasons: Possible reasons: Muscle development: At 3 months, some babies are still strengthening neck and shoulder muscles. Some might take a little longer to move towards one side. Favoring one side: It's possible your baby prefers one side due to position, or has some tension in the neck muscles (e.g., torticollis), which makes turning one way harder. Limited tummy time: Tummy time is essential for building the muscles needed to turn and move. Make sure your baby has plenty of supervised tummy time to strengthen neck and back muscles. Tips: Tummy time: Encourage daily tummy time (several short sessions, 2–3 minutes each) to strengthen the neck muscles. Place interesting toys just to the side to encourage head movement. Positioning: Gently encourage your baby to turn both ways by placing them at an angle or using toys in front of them. Consult a pediatrician: If you're concerned about your baby’s neck movement or if they seem to be favoring one side for a prolonged period, a pediatrician can check for conditions like torticollis. If you notice any unusual stiffness or if your baby is consistently unable to turn to one side, it’s best to consult your pediatrician for a thorough evaluation.
