Neck strength

My babe still seems floppy. Holds head up but doesn't seem to be super strong. How does your little one do with neck strength?

    According to The Wonder Weeks when they are going through their 4th mental leap, between 14-19 weeks, needing more head support again is one of the signs it's happening. It's to be expected and totally normal!:)

    My LO was a bobble head for weeks and then one day it just stopped and now she holds her head up like a champ. Hang in there, it will happen.

    It all depends on a lot of factors.  My children both had decent head control from birth.  An adopted daughter in our extended family had a weak neck for months.

    My boy is 21 weeks today. He has been holding his head up and looking around since birth, a little wobbly for the first few weeks but now he holds is head up like a champ. He loves tummy time because he does the cobra position and looks all around. He especially loves to get entertained by our 3 y/o boxer.
