What Are the Different Types of Motor Skills in Infants?

After birth, the newborn has a strong ability to exercise. Hold the newborn upright and let his feet touch the bed. Some newborns will have two legs walking alternately. Moving forward, the newborn seems to be walking. If the baby is prone, he will slowly raise his head and turn to the side. At this moment, the mother will hold his feet with his palms, and he will crawl. Part of the newborn's athletic ability is primitive reflexes, such as step reflexes. This movement will gradually disappear after the neonatal period (about 58 days). Another part of the exercise increases with the age of the month, such as lifting heads, crawling and so on. Newborns have many amazing athletic skills.
