Just curious, how soon did all of your babies start lifting their heads?
-
My LO lifted her head the first time I held her. She had/has really strong neck muscles!
-
@chopsuey119: Same here, by the second day she was holding her head up like a pro.
-
Lifting from tummy time? On the floor, 2 months. Tummy time on our chest, 1 month. He just hates the floor.
-
Similar to Venice4504, my son lifted his head from being held within the first month and from tummy time I think it was 9 weeks or so.
-
She's been lifting her head sunce birth, on our chest and laying on her tummy!
-
Same here! Lifting her head since day two
-
Same-ish as everyone. Since birth-ish from laying on my chest. But from tummy time, maybe 1.5-2 months?
-
Not only did she lift her head since birth but she could lift it so high that she would roll over from tummy to back since the first week.
-
She also lifted her head pretty early like everyone else.
But at almost 4 months I still don't feel comfortable leaving her in a bumbo too long, or facing her forward in a baby carrier. I'm a bit paranoid though. I want her to be super sturdy before we do those things.

My lil one was able to lift her head off of my chest from birth too. I think breast feeding her has helped with the muscle development. It seems like she tends to use her neck more so than if I was just holding her and giving her a bottle. At 2 months she was able to hold her head up for short periods of time, if I propped her on her elbows. Now, at 3 months, she's able to prop herself up on her elbows without my assistance and she can raise her neck high for awhile.

I would say since birth as well. She is 2 months now and it's getting so much sturdier.
