Compared to children of the same age, babies develop more slowly. At the age of three and a half, they are not tall, relatively thin, and cannot speak fully. Examination shows that they have delayed development. So, what does "delayed development at the age of three and a half" mean?
A three-and-a-half-year-old baby with delayed development means that the child will not grow tall and cannot speak complete words. It can also cause instability when standing. This situation is called developmental delay. If a baby lacks nutrients in their body, such as zinc, iron, or magnesium, they may also experience delayed development and sometimes speak and walk slower than their peers of the same age. Babies with insufficient bone density may also experience weakness compared to their peers, requiring calcium supplementation and more outdoor play and sun exposure.
The baby is relatively weak and weak, so it is necessary to gradually increase their nutrition and mix them with more nutritious foods to eat. Adding vitamins and dietary fiber will also help the baby increase their nutrition. Some are also due to pregnancy factors. If pregnant women develop harmful habits such as exposure to radioactive substances or smoking and drinking during pregnancy, it can also cause slow growth of the baby in the later stages.
Babies can supplement their nutrition by eating more nutritious substances and strengthening their exercise. If it is heavy, it can also affect their intellectual development. Sometimes, their pronunciation may be inaccurate, which can make them unable to take care of themselves, resulting in incomplete development.
If it is not too serious, then it is necessary to strengthen nutrition management, let the baby have more contact with children of the same age, exercise outdoors more, and increase some nutritional balance, so that the baby can recover its health.
