Arching back - 3 month old
When I lift my baby horizontally by holding her neck and buttocks, baby is arching back and trying to look back. Even when I try to hold her vertically in burping position she is arching back and not willing to sleep on shoulder. Is this normal?
When sleeping on bed she is fine.

This is due to reflux.
Better feeding practices may help.

It's normal for the baby.
Gradually as the baby grows older this arching will stop.
