[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How can you tell that a 4 wk old has low muscle tone? No snark, being serious. I have several children too, but that's not something I would have noticed/known at that age. They can't do anything yet. [/quote] You absolutely can tell by the way the baby moves, or doesn't, and how the baby lies. In some cases it is quite obvious, which is why they refer to it as floppy baby syndrome. Low tone babies and kids feel heavier than same-weight babies of normal tone too. Think of how much heavier your child feels when you carry them in a deep sleep versus when awake.[/quote] Sorry this is incorrect.[/quote]
