What age should a baby hold its head up?

Babies typically start to hold their head up at around 4 months old. However, this is a general guideline, and there is a range of normal development.

Here's a breakdown:

* 2-3 months: Baby can lift their head briefly while lying on their tummy.

* 4-5 months: Baby can hold their head steady while lying on their tummy and can turn their head from side to side.

* 6 months: Baby can sit with support and hold their head upright for longer periods.

Important Note: If you are concerned about your baby's development, it's always best to talk to your pediatrician. They can assess your baby's progress and offer any necessary guidance.
