Did you know?   Newborns are born with a set of impressive reflexes known as "primitive reflexes," which are essential for their survival and development in the early months of life!   One notable reflex is the "grasp reflex," where a baby will automatically grasp any object placed in their hand, including your finger. Another is the "rooting reflex," which causes a baby to turn their head and open their mouth when their cheek is stroked, helping them find the breast or bottle for feeding. These reflexes are crucial as they aid in feeding and bonding with caregivers, and they gradually fade as the baby’s nervous system matures and voluntary movements take over. We hope today’s fun fact has given you a deeper appreciation for the amazing abilities of newborns!
