When the primal reflex completes its mission, it will be controlled by the higher center of the brain. If the primitive reflex is not well suppressed in time, it will have an impact on the baby's growth and development.
indeed, the word primitive reflection is extremely strange. But it may have a lifelong impact on the baby! Mothers must seriously understand and take it seriously! Let's talk about these five primitive reflexes:
1 grasping reflex
2 sucking reflex
3 tonic neck tension reflex
4 Moro reflex
5 labyrinth reflex
1, grasping reflex (hand & Foot)-affecting talking, writing and walking
Stroking the baby's palm, you can see him holding your finger tightly quickly. Touch the toe web between the big toe and the second toe of the baby's foot, and you can see the little toe bend, or touch the bottom of the baby's foot, and you can see the little toe straighten or curl. Grasping reflex appeared after birth, and this reflex often appears together with the sucking reflex.
grasping reflex of hand will gradually weaken after 2 months, and disappear no later than 5 months; Grasping reflex of the foot will gradually weaken from 3 months, and disappear completely in about 1 months (the reflex must disappear before walking).
Great influence 1. Writing grasping reflex is related to the activities of thumb and little finger, which will affect the three-finger grip and the flexibility of each finger, especially in the pen-holding action when writing. 2. The speech brain is responsible for the fine movements of fingers, and it also controls the movements of lips, tongue and cheek muscles. Unrepressive grasping reflex may lead to a decline in pronunciation clarity, resulting in language difficulties. 3. Children who walk a lot and can't climb, and can't walk. Grasping reflex in the foot is not well suppressed, and tight toes may make the baby resist walking, because tight toes will make him uncomfortable to walk. For example, some babies will stand and walk in bed when they are older, but they will not move a step when they get to the ground. 4. Fine movements The grasping reflex of the hand is not well suppressed, and the hand is sensitive and nervous, so the fine movements will not be very good. For example, building blocks, children of the same age can already build three floors, he may only build two floors, and when it comes to the stage of pinching his forefinger and thumb, he will only grasp with five fingers. Some simple fine action games, the baby may not be able to complete. And fine movements directly affect the baby's concentration.
how?
1. Allow the baby to grasp the clothes on the mother's chest while nursing
2. Give the baby more hand massage
3. Play more tactile games
4. Allow the baby to play "losing things", eat by himself and pick up small things. Older babies can play with finger painting and plasticine.
2. Sucking reflex-affects eating hands after one year old
When a baby's nipple (breast-fed or bottle-fed) is put in his mouth and touches the palate, he will automatically start sucking.
Sucking reflex needs to be suppressed. Babies need to learn to suck actively, know what to eat, when to eat and how much to eat, and stop when they are full. Active sucking this type of behavior controlled by the brain is called controllable behavior.
Great influence. 1. This reflex generally subsides in 3 ~ 4 months. If it does not completely subside, the baby may have frequent sucking actions during sleep or other inattention. 2. Babies whose sucking needs are not met before the age of one will probably continue to eat their hands after the age of 1-2. Therefore, it is necessary to encourage little babies to eat their hands and feet or other safe and hygienic items to meet their sucking needs.
3. Ankylosing neck tension reflex-affects turning over, left-right coordination, writing and reading.
When the baby's head is turned to one side, the arm on the same side will be straight and the arm on the other side will be bent, just like fencing.
This reflex is not easy for parents to detect. It is when we don't understand early education, these big reflexes after the baby is born, and we don't observe the baby so carefully, so we will ignore these important developments < P >. 1. This reflex affects the muscle tension on both sides of the body, so it may become a big obstacle for the baby to turn over. 2. If the reflex of school-age children is still very active, the sense of balance may be affected by the left and right activities of the head, and it is difficult to complete the cross-over action. It is difficult to establish the habit of using left and right hands/feet/eyes/ears, and it is difficult to distinguish the dominant side. 3. It affects the movement of eyes and the development of writing and reading ability. Everyone always skips when reading, and always skips when writing, which is why he didn't restrain his stiff neck reflex well when he was young. Including now many babies go to physical examination, and doctors give comments, saying that the baby's muscle tension is high. There are also many babies with high muscle tension around me. The reason is that their ankylosing neck tension reflex was not suppressed well when they were young, and when they were older, they still didn't do corresponding exercise, so there would be some problems of sensory imbalance. Therefore, the baby's abilities and development are interlocking and inseparable.
4. Moro reflex-sensitive, frightening and difficult to pacify
It will have different degrees of influence on different babies, such as the sudden change of head position or leaning back, or being frightened by sudden loud noise, and the baby will have limbs outstretched and neck straightened, and then his arms will be folded, and maybe he will cry.
this is the startle reflex! Many parents just become mothers and don't know anything. They are always afraid of scaring their children and doing everything quietly. When they sleep, they are quiet at home and dare not do housework. They stay with their babies and there is no sound at home. In fact, this will affect their children.
Great influence Among all the original reflections, Moro reflection is the most complicated and difficult to suppress, and its adverse effects are also the greatest. If this reflex is not well suppressed in the early stage, babies may be sensitive, easily frightened, and emotionally volatile, and some children may even be affected for life. Many parents like to say that their children are timid and sensitive, so have you traced the root of the problem?
5. Get lost reflex-it affects the head up badly and can't climb
A baby who is in the climbing stage will have this phenomenon. When he is lying on his stomach, his hands are open, like a small plane, and his calves are upturned.
Great influence 1. It prevents children from crawling on their hands and knees, which will seriously affect the coordinated movements of upper and lower limbs when they grow up, such as breaststroke and dancing. 2. Walking may make you slightly stiff, with your head leaning forward and poor balance. 3. Interfering with the formation of sensory integration ability makes children easy to lose concentration, weak organizational ability and poor organization.
All the above primitive reflexes are based on medical evidence and scientific theory, so the correct way to take care of the baby is not only to give them a healthy body, but also to help the baby scientifically the day after tomorrow.
Every step of the baby's growth and development can't be separated from the careful observation and care of parents. When the baby has problems, don't blame the baby, but look for the reasons from the parents themselves.
Don't say that you have to wait until your baby is older, because you don't know what real early education is ~
It's very important to give your child the right stimulation at the right time! For small-month-old babies: more massage, more lying, and more interaction.
at the same time, leave the professional work to the professional! These days, the early education game courses that our -6-month-old babies learn are all derived from the following compulsory course for small-month-old parenting, which not only exercises the senses and exercises, but also inhibits the original reflex. Like grasping reflex.
The colorful ribbons in the course, and the game of pumping music, can stimulate grasping reflex well. For example, the ankylosing cervical nervous reflex
crosses the middle line in the course, and my little foot game can well restrain and relieve the nervous reflex. For example, the games such as "flying", "doll in a box" and "swing" in the course of lost reflex can effectively stimulate and restrain the lost reflex.
Here are some games in the compulsory course of small-month-old parenting. In fact, many games in the course can always be used.
1. Sensory Bottle
Purpose of the game:
1. Visual tracking
2. Auditory development
3. Sensory stimulation
———————
From small to large, we can make many kinds of sensory bottles for our baby. Sensory bottles are called magic bottles, which are very good and open. You can play it since you are 1 month old
II. Blanket Swing
Purpose of the game:
1 Sensory coordination
2 Vestibular sensory stimulation
————————
If you adjust the swing and height appropriately according to your baby's age, your baby's reaction will definitely surprise you
.
if you join the small step Deep formal course, you must make use of this course. The games seem simple, but they are carefully designed and selected. Even if you don't know the principle knowledge, following the course steps will make you worry a lot.
At the same time, parents who missed the early childhood education enlightenment should not be discouraged. They should seize the early childhood education enlightenment of the current age and not miss the rest of the golden age of early education. The problems will only increase during the baby's growth, and the small step Deep formal class can at least make everyone take fewer detours.
