My Baby This Week -- Your 4 month old, fourth week

Now's a good time to help your baby develop equal strength and flexibility on both sides of her body. How?

That full range of movement leads to greater muscle control, which she'll need to develop good eye-hand co-ordination sometime around her ninth month.
