@tracy_tysonmd: 🚩 Is your baby already a righty or a lefty? A strong, consistent hand preference before 18 months can be something worth mentioning to your pediatrician. Babies and young toddlers typically use both hands as their brain and motor skills develop. Early, persistent hand dominance doesn’t automatically mean something is wrong—but we may want to make sure there isn’t weakness or another reason they’re avoiding one side. 👶 When in doubt, bring it up at their next visit.
