Visited a booth at my farmer’s market where the mom working was wearing her baby in a sling on her back. This kid’s neck was as far back as it could go. We mentioned it to the mom, and she just said “yeah, her head’s been bobbing around all morning.”
I don’t know the baby’s age. And I don’t know much about babies. Based on the first time I saw her, she’s at least seven months old. I know that newborns’ necks need to be supported. And I know that having your neck in that position can cause a stroke in adults.
It made my mom so uncomfortable she had to walk away, but the people behind us talked to the woman and said nothing about it. Should this be reported to someone? Or is it totally normal and fine?
I remember a friend of mine becoming a mother and saying, “Yeah the doctor said never to let her head go back too far and a split second later my daughter suddenly decided to fucking wrench their neck as far back as it could go”
