Feedback:
The nurse should report asymmetrical movement of the limbs of the newborn as abnormal. Newborns normally move their arms and legs freely and symmetrically. It is normal for newborns to sleep approximately 17 hours a day and flex their extremities. Newborns are normally unable to support the weight of the head.
