5-Week Check-Up

 

 

 

The 5-week check-up is the first of the preventive child health examinations and plays an important role in detecting any congenital or undiagnosed conditions. The doctor will conduct a thorough examination of the baby, weigh and measure it, and assess whether its development is age-appropriate.

 

 

 

The parent consultation often focuses on topics such as: the birth, the baby’s sleep patterns, and nutrition.

 

 

 

Milestones:

  • The baby can lift its head when lying on its stomach.

  • The baby’s cry differs depending on whether it is hungry, has a wet diaper, or is in pain.

  • The baby can briefly focus on moving objects.

  • The baby smiles at mom or dad.
