Any mother, whether before or after giving birth, hopes that her baby can grow up smart and clever. However, in reality, it often comes down to some people. Many babies may have mental problems or height issues after birth. So would delayed development be foolish?
The main manifestation of developmental delay is that the baby experiences abnormal phenomena during the development process. For example, slow growth rate or abnormal intelligence. Does developmental delay make babies stupid? In fact, this mainly depends on the degree of delayed development. If it is a relatively mild delay in development, early treatment by mothers can be cured. But in more serious cases, it will definitely have a certain impact on the baby's intelligence. So what are the manifestations of delayed intellectual development?
1. Reaction is sluggish. If babies see colored or moving objects or hear sounds from the outside world, they will move their heads in the same direction as the objects or sounds. However, those babies with delayed reactions cannot turn their heads to look at the source of sound and objects in a timely manner.
2. Insufficient suction capacity. Normal babies may exert excessive force and become anxious when sucking on nipples or pacifiers. But for the slow baby, it is obvious that his strength is insufficient.
3. Abnormal crying. A slow child's crying is usually small, weak, and sharp. There may be some babies who do not like to cry or play around, appearing obedient on the surface, but in fact, this is a manifestation of delayed intellectual development in babies.
