Does not roll over
My baby is 5 months old and does not start side turn. When baby hold finger without any push baby do side turn and come on tummy but most of the time baby does not do side turn it seems baby forget or not interested. Always want to stand and jump, doesn't want to lie down always want godi. Is this normal , whey baby is not doing side turn. Earlier baby use to do side turn. But now if baby hold hand then do side turn and come on tummy and want to go ahead. Is this normal or do I need to visit doctor for the same.
