@madmarriott: The MORO AKA startle reflex 😮‍💨 Present at birth and typically fades between 4-6 months 🚼 This reflex is an automatic response present at birth. When a baby is startled by a loud noise, sudden movement, or change in head position, they extend their arms and legs outward, then bring them back in—often crying afterward. 👶🏼It reflects a healthy, developing nervous system and supports early sensory, motor, and emotional development. 🟣Top 5 Benefits of Moro Reflex 1. Indicates healthy brain development 2. Develops sensory foundation (vestibular and proprioceptive) 3. Encourages bonding and regulation 4. Builds pathways for voluntary movement (like rolling, sitting, and reaching) 🛑However, if this reflex doesn’t appear or remains present after 6 months, make sure to mention to your pediatrician!🩺 #baby #babyboy #whatthehell #infant #FTM #momlife #occupationaltherapy #fypシ #fyp #foryoupage #fypシ゚viral #momtok #firsttimemom #babiesoftiktok

У меня была такая же дочь, во сне вздрагивали руками и начинала плакать. Ближе к 4 месяцам стала приучать её спать без пеленания. Сначала на дневные сны, а потом и на ночь
