Holding his head up
by Jess Lewis
(Oldham)
My 6 month old (Isaac) is holding his head up, but he holds it slightly to the left most of the time. Is this something to worry about? He was born at 37weeks 5days.
Although it's too early to diagnose, because of the fact that the baby tends to lift his head and tilt it to the favoring side.
Iīd dare recommend you have your baby's hearing tested. It could be nothing. And it could just be the way the light hits the room.
There are a thousand reasons for it, but I have had two similar cases of students that presented such symptoms. They went through many tests and doctors and both had ducts inside their ears clogged. So, just have it checked.
I donīt know how early their hearing can be tested. Ask your pediatrician.
