Teach your baby to hold the head

Your newborn baby will have to learn holding head in the nearest months - and you can help him/her to strengthen neck muscles!

Stimulate the little one to turn head side to side while laying down. Encourage to rotate the head by slowly moving a light-up toy or brightly colored toy within their line of vision to each side to encourage the baby to turn head to follow it.

If your newborn isn’t looking both ways equally, position the little one in the crib so that all interesting items/toys/people were on the side that he/she rotates to less. Use sounds/music on the less favored side if there are no interesting objects to look at.

The next step is the tummytime - it's never too early to start it! A great tummy time activity for newborns is also a great skin to skin activity- simply being on their parents chest on their tummy. You can alter the angle that they are on their tummy to make it easier or harder. This position also places your face close enough so they have something interesting to look at while they’re on their tummy.

Make cute photos with your little one, upload to the App. Write how your baby is learning to hold his/her head.
