Hiya

My son is 14weeks, he still doesnt have much strength in holding his head, he wont let us lay him on his front to help, he just cries.

Is there anyhting i can do to help, has anyone else had this?

all babies develop at different times and my experience is that 1st babies are slower as they have no other siblings to copy, however if your worried talk to your health visitor good luck, let me know how you get on.

my daughter is 13 wk + not holding her head up at all. She just lets it drop forward. I have worried about this would like to know if + when your son held his head up alone. Thanks.

Hi
I wouldn't worry just yet,,,,,,,,,they are only young yet,,,,,,,it will happen soon, I was worried that my son wasn't sitting unaided, then the next day after I posted on here he did it,,,,,,,,,they are all different and do things at different time !
