If he is a smart baby then maybe 2 or 3 days. If not maybe as long as 20-25 days. If he's retarded... maybe never depending on the severity of the intellectual deficiency.

Baby's will have random movement for a few months. I have 2 children and a good pediatrician. True control will be months away like being able to hold things, finding there hands and starting to put them in there mouth and the such will usually happen around 2 or 3 months, but control of them is still a few months after that. You can get this kind of information from your babies doctor and from a web site I have used in the past about development the site is www.babycenter.com...

Use of hands is considered a fine motor skill. This is a skill that is build over time and experiences. My daughter is 10 months old and is still learning. She is starting to pick up small pieces of food and put them in her mouth. Once she is about 14 months she'll probably start using a fork.
Be patient. . . you're baby isn't even a month old. She's probably still scratching herself accidently and grabbing at nothing. If scratching is a problem (was for my girls), use the baby mitts. They can be found at almost any store that carries baby items.

Not for months, I don't think.
They go through various stages or physical development.
They cannot sit up until about 6 months (NOT SURE).
They start to walk at about 1 year to 18 months and cannot even see properly for upto about a month.
The brain has not developed enough for it to be properly effective in the world like an older child.
Human beings are born before the brain is ready to work normally "in a child sense".
This is because the brain is so large and has to come out because the pelvis is so small.
It will take ages to get full developed child liek brain.
ALWAS DO THINGS SUCH AS SUPPORTING THE HEAD.
Anything you want to know needs to be asked to a specialist or post natal type nurse/doctor.

I want to say it starts around 3 months. Their hands are small and it is hard to hold things. If you give him small infant toys that might help him learn. Don't rush him too much, they grow faster than you realize and then the baby stage is over. Good luck to you.

hello
I have a 12 week old and he just started finding his hands 2 weeks ago. It is a very slow process. At first he just clasped them together and looked at them a lot (which caused him to go cros-eyed frequently...normal). Now he brings them to his mouth to suck on his fingers...I think he is trying to find his thumb, but no luck so far. Also, just in the past couple of days he is starting to grab toys placed in his lap and bring them up to his mouth as well.

it's still a baby.. if you mean control over his/her bottle of milk.. or literally use the hand to anything.. that would be impossible.. it will take time.. say 2-3 months maybe.. as far as i can remember..

That takes a few months. Relax - babies have a lot of growing and developing to do :)
