Baby not holding head
My baby is 3 months old now but he can't lift his head (only for 2-3 seconds he can hold)when holding in upright position ( back hand support is needed). We tried to give tummy time but he is not lifting his head but he tries to come forward with his legs. Other milestones like tracking objects with sound, social smiles, making cooing sounds are normal. Is it normal for this age to not lifting his head while on tummy and steady neck? Please suggest if anything is there that we have to inform pediatrician on this.
