@the.baby.whisperer: Head strength from day 1? Yes, and here is why 👶 ⠀ The neck reflex is ignited during birth itself, as baby's head passes under the pubic bones, activating the lumbar reflex in turn. ✨ ⠀ That is why a newborn can lift his head and crawl to the breast within the first hour of life: the breast crawl. The strength is there from the start. 💪 ⠀ 🔹 Head control is not a milestone you wait for, it is a reflex you engage 🔹 Proper carrying + daily stimulation + working against gravity = strong head early 🔹 Struggling to lift the head after a c-section or traumatic birth is a mechanical imbalance, not a lack of time ⠀ When did your baby start holding his head?
