A. It's generally not recommended to make a 3-month-old baby stand on your lap or any other surface. At this age, a baby's neck and spine are not yet fully developed, and they lack the muscle strength and coordination to support their weight in a standing position. Forcing a baby to stand or putting too much weight on their legs before they are physically ready can potentially be harmful to their developing muscles, joints, and bones. Babies typically develop the ability to bear weight on their legs and stand with support at around 4 to 6 months of age. This development occurs naturally as the baby's muscles and bones strengthen. Until then, it's important to focus on providing proper tummy time, back time, and supervised play in safe positions. These activities help a baby develop the necessary muscle strength and coordination for standing and walking when the time is right. Always consult with a pediatrician if you have concerns about your baby's development or if you're unsure about age-appropriate activities for your child. It's essential to prioritize your baby's safety and well-being as they reach their developmental milestones.
