Journal Entry #1

(I haven't ever observed infants ages 0 - 12 months...)

• From Birth, infants have little to no head and neck control. Since their neck muscles are very weak, they will rely on their caregivers to support their neck for at least one month.

• When they reach 1 - 2 months, they should be able to lift their head briefly and turn it from side to side when lying on their stomach.

• At 3 - 4 months, infants can typically lift their heads to 45 degrees while on their stomach and keep it up steadily.

• When infants are 5 - 6 months old, they can hold their heads up steady and erect, and they can flex it forward when pulled into a sitting position.

CHATTER

A dream is a wish your heart makes
When you're fast asleep
In dreams you will lose your heartaches
Whatever you wish for, you keep


Have faith in your dreams and someday
Your rainbows will come smiling through
No matter how your heart is grieving
If you keep on believing
the dream that you wish will come true <3
