Unless she forced the infant to run themselves, taking them on a run sounds like good parenting.

My line for this topic depends on familiarity. If you see the baby once a week or more, kiss the stinker if you want to. Otherwise, don't.

That line exists somewhere for everyone, no one would suggest that a mother shouldn't kiss her child.

No the neck strength isn’t always there for kids to last a bumpy stroller run before six months. And this is from someone who went stir crazy and really wanted to do it.

Sure, but really no benefit to baby and only risk so why do it unless there’s some societal pressure

Well, um, technically... There's probably situations when it's a bad idea, but getting a C-section bloodless enough for it to matter might be hard, and people care about babies a lot less than they say they do. Revealed preferences compared to the actual information available to humanity, that sort of thing.
