The reflex where a baby automatically grasps an object placed in their hand disappears around this age.

This milestone indicates a baby's strengthening core muscles and ability to balance independently.

If a baby is not able to build a basic tower at this age, it could indicate delayed motor development.

A weak or missing grasp reflex in a baby might point to potential muscle issues or nerve damage.

This is a more precise version of the grasp reflex and a sign of developing fine motor skills.

If the Moro reflex persists beyond four months, it may indicate a potential neurological issue.

If this reflex is missing or uneven, it could point to potential brain damage or weakness on one side of the body.

This milestone signifies a baby's growing strength and ability to move around independently.

This reflex, normally present in infants, may suggest neurological problems if it's absent.

This is a crucial indicator of a baby's brain development and can indicate potential neurological dysfunction.

Children typically achieve this gross motor skill milestone by this age.

If this reflex persists beyond 8 months, it could indicate potential neurological issues or developmental delays.

This fine motor skill allows babies to grasp objects with precision using their thumb and forefinger.

This reflex, which makes a baby automatically grip anything placed in their hand, usually fades during this time.

The Moro reflex, also known as the startle reflex, typically fades by this age.

A baby's weight usually doubles by this age, indicating healthy growth and development.

This reflex is evident when a baby turns their head toward a touch on their cheek, suggesting a natural instinct to seek nourishment.

If this reflex persists beyond six months, it could signal a potential neurological issue.

The stepping reflex is often observed in newborn babies and is believed to help prepare their legs for walking.

A sign of developmental delay might be when a baby's sucking and rooting reflexes persist beyond 8 months, suggesting a delay in the development of oral motor skills.

This reflex is seen when a baby's toes curl downward when the sole of their foot is touched, and it typically fades as they develop.
