STAGE A: BIRTH TO 6 MONTHS

BASIC ACTIVITIES

Breast-feeding is natures plan, but is not always possible.

Ask your specialist for advice on formulas.

Feed your infant from both the right and left side if bottle feeding. This is important in order to stimulate each side of your infants body and allow each hand to open and shut as it grabs at the mothers breast and clothing.

Lifting infant to lie on his back

Pick your infant up so his head rests in the crook of your arm, first one side and then the other. Repeat three to five times.

Lifting infant to lie on his front

Try the same with your infant lying on his front across your arm, looking downward.

Lifting infant to sitting position

Have your infant sitting on one arm, while holding his back firmly against you with your other hand.

Lay infants on their fronts (when awake) as soon as possible after birthsome say five daysso they become accustomed to this position, which enables the repetitive wriggling reflex of newborn infants. This is very important for overcoming the primitive, involuntary survival reflexes of infancy. Front lying also strengthens the infants neck, which is vital for the overcoming of the primitive reflexes, allowing the development of voluntary movements of infancy.

HELPING YOUR INFANTS DEVELOPMENT

The hearing pathways are more mature at birth than the visual pathways.

While your infant is asleep, play low-volume music or nature sounds.

Sing and move to musicdance to the beat.

All coordinated movements require rhythm and stimulate speech and language.

Every day, read simple rhythmical stories and nursery rhymes with repetitive language.

Massage and exercise your infant slowly to enable the messages to be absorbed through the central nervous system to the brain.

Infants love the soothing rhythmic movement of dance. This is both massage and inner-ear (vestibular) stimulation. The basic elements of dance are space, form, time, flow, rhythm, and emotional response. Dancing with infants helps in the development of balance and space and body awareness. Little ones under 2-3 months of age do not have adequate neck muscles to lift their own head, so support the head in all activities for this age.
