My daughter has just turned three months old, and is very left-dominant - she flails her left arm more than her right, she kicks more with her left leg, and she turns her head to the left usually - she also turns her head more easily to the left than to the right. It isn't like she can't use her right side, but she definitely has more of an issue with it. I've read in a number of baby books that infants aren't supposed to favour one side of their body more than the other until toddler age - should I discuss this with her doctor, or am I being paranoid? I don't mind if it just means she's going to be left-handed, but if it's a developmental issue, I'd like to know.
