A. yes almost a month.See it looks ok only.but if you doubt then for your satisfaction show to a doctor there as they can examine the patient and give even a better opinion in this case .

A. This is perfectly normal. His limbs will uncurl gradually as he gets used to being outside your womb (uterus). If your baby was in a breech position at birth, it may take him a little longer to stretch out. This is because his feet were up by his ears, so it may be a few days before he's ready to straighten his legs.
