Yes: In early infancy the first muscles baby controls include those of head lifting & turning. In addition thighs may flex and elbows often come in. Whether this is a reaction of displeasure, response to heartburn, gas or cramps it is more or less what an infant can do. As they mature their muscle control will allow different fittting behavior, although some continue to arch out of habit.
