Neha, She is too small. You could wait for few more months may be when she turns 6 months. At least she should be able to hold her head up on her own. So wait till she gains her head control. Baby castings (hand and foot imprint) kits are available in ebay. in. You can either use the kit or Air dry clay and photo frame to take imprints. Another option is to use polymer clay in the photo frame and press her feet and hand to imprint. But Polymer clay has to be baked in a convection oven at temperature given in the 'directions to use' in the pack as the temp varies from brand to brand. Hope this helps

So have u taken hand n foot print of ur baby Carol?if yes then by which method? I was aware before that some persons make frames of hand n foot prints on clay by charging money. But can we ourselves take the hand n foot prints?which is the most convenient n easy method among the methods u have told here?

Neha, I have taken my puppy's paw print. While baking the clay ensure you don't bake it along with the frame. Bake the clay base separately and fix it in the frame. Air dry clay is the simplest method as you don't have to worry about burning the clay or the frame.
