Ever seen the Moro reflex in action? - This ‘startle reflex’ is a newborn’s built-in survival response for the first 3-6 months of life - arms fling out, then curl back in like they’re bracing for life. Watching babies show this reflex is both fascinating and a reminder of how fearfully and wonderfully we’re made. Want me to break down more neonatal reflexes?

This is a commonly assessed newborn reflex after your baby is born! It’s called the startle reflex and it can indeed be a bit startling when your baby’s doctor checks this in postpartum! (Also disclaimer…though I shouldn’t have to mention this please DON’T DO THIS TO YOUR BRAND NEW BABY unless you’re medically trained!) #startlereflex #newbornbaby #newborntips #expectingparents #postpartumlife | Mama Nurse Tina

MORO REFLEX‼️Check Baby’s BRAIN DEVELOPMENT !! the Moro reflex (startle reflex) is a key part of assessing a newborn’s brain development, as its presence, strength, symmetry, and eventual disappearance signal a healthy central nervous system; however, an abnormal or absent reflex can indicate nerve injury or brain damage, requiring medical investigation. Pediatricians check it at birth and monitor its changes to ensure proper neurological function. What it indicates Normal: A normal Moro reflex

The Startle reflex is one of the most important to integrate. If it does not, a child can grow up with high anxiety and high cortisol without even knowing why. Babies need to practice the startle. Swaddling keeps the reflex from activating, which prevents it from integrating. For a regulated nervous system, babies need time out of the wrap so the startle can happen often. Noise, gravity, and floor time all help trigger it naturally. Those little flailing arms are not just cute, they are building

📣 Does your baby startle at the tiniest sound or movement? That’s the Moro Reflex (aka the Startle Reflex) — one of baby’s built-in survival tools, designed to protect them from perceived danger. Don’t worry, it’s totally normal for newborns! ✨ But here’s the scoop: if this reflex sticks around past 6 months, it could lead to things like anxiety and developmental challenges. 😳 Helping your little one integrate this reflex will lead to a calmer, more coordinated, and confident baby! 💪 ✅ Signs
