A. Hello, your baby girl is 5.5 months old and her shoulder joints are sounding, so it’s very normal and due to friction at scapular socket with head of humerus bone,but don’t pull her by her arms or consult orthopaedic surgeon.

A. hello that us normal in small babies. you can also start calcium supplements like syp osteocalcium 3.5ml two times a day for a month and along with weaning and solid food after 6 months of age.

A. Those sounds are probably caused by sliding tendons, which happen when soft tissue (tendons) interacts with hard tissue (bones). It's very common for a baby or toddler to make clicking and popping noises—similar to the sound of cracking one's knuckles—in the spine and around the shoulders, knees and ankles.
