Is my baby right- or left-handed?

Postnatal, Your questions

How can I know if my baby will be right- or left-handed? Thanks for your help, Pierre-Yves

For your question, you will start to see manual predominance of one side or the other around 18 months of age. It may change afterwards, but only in rare cases.

All the best!
