新生儿反射

如果您的新婴儿被大声的噪音，突然的动作或感觉像掉落的感觉震惊，他们可能会以特殊的方式做出反应。他们可能会突然伸出胳膊和腿，拱起背部，然后再次卷曲。您的宝宝在这样做时可能会或可能不会哭泣。

这是一种名为Moro反射的非自愿惊吓反应。您的宝宝对被吓了一跳的回应做了反思。这是新生婴儿做的事情，然后在几个月内停止做。

您的婴儿医生可能会在送达后考试期间和预定的检查期间检查此答复。

Types of newborn reflexes

Babies are born with a number of reflexes. Soon after birth, they can show reflexes for rooting, sucking, grasping, and stepping, among others.

生根

如果您轻轻触摸他们的脸颊，您的宝宝会将他们的脸，嘴巴张开，朝您的手或乳房转动。婴儿本能地做这种食物。

吮吸

Your baby will automatically begin sucking if something touches the roof of their mouth. Babies do this instinctively for nourishment. But although your baby naturally knows how to suck, it can take some practice to turn it into a skill.

If you’re having difficulty breastfeeding, don’t be discouraged. Instead, ask for help from a lactation consultant. You can find one through your local hospital.

Grasping

Your baby will close their fingers around something pressed into their hand, like your finger or a toy. This reflex helps babies develop the skills to intentionally grasp things as they grow.

Stepping

If you hold your baby upright and let their feet touch a flat surface, they’ll pick up one foot and then the other. It looks as though they’re trying to take steps. This reflex helps babies develop the controlled skill of walking, which they’ll probably start doing around their first birthday.

这些反射是婴儿发育的正常部分。它们帮助您的宝宝在世界上的功能。Moro反射是另一种普通的婴儿反射。

我如何阻止婴儿吓了一跳？

当您试图让婴儿入睡时，您可能会注意到宝宝的惊吓反射。俯身放下它们可能会给宝宝带来跌倒的感觉。即使您的宝宝​​睡得很香，也可以唤醒他们。

If your baby’s Moro reflex is keeping them from sleeping properly, try these tips:

  • Keep your baby close to your body when laying them down.在将它们放下时，请尽可能长的时间。只有在孩子触摸床垫后，只有在宝宝的背上轻轻释放。这种支持应该足以防止他们经历跌倒的感觉，这可能会触发惊吓反射。
  • 骗你的宝宝。This will make them feel safe and secure. Swaddling is a technique that mimics the close, cozy quarters of the womb. It can also help your baby sleep longer.

How to swaddle

To swaddle your baby, follow these steps:

  1. Use a large, thin blanket. Lay the blanket out on a flat surface.
  2. 稍微折叠一个角。轻轻地将宝宝朝上放在毯子上，头部在折叠角的边缘。
  3. Bring one corner of the blanket across your baby’s body and tuck it snugly beneath them.
  4. 折叠毯子的底部，为宝宝的脚和腿留出空间。
  5. 将毯子的最后一角带到宝宝的身体上，并将其塞在它们下面。这只会使他们的头和脖子暴露。

Your swaddled baby should only be laid on their back to sleep. Check them regularly to be sure they don’t overheat. If you have questions about swaddling, ask your baby’s doctor.

鼓励运动

宝宝的惊吓反射随着它们的成长而开始消失。到您的宝宝3到6个月大时，他们可能不会再证明Moro反射了。他们将对自己的动作有更多的控制权，反射会变得不那么活泼。

You can help your baby progress by making time every day for movement. Give your baby space to stretch their arms and legs. This will help them tone and strengthen their muscles. Even newborn babies should have the opportunity to move, including their little heads. Just be careful to provide support to your baby’s head and neck when you’re holding them.

什么时候打电话给你的医生

When a baby doesn’t have normal reflexes, it can be sign of potential problems. If the Moro reflex is lacking on one side of your baby’s body, it can be the result of a broken shoulder or a nerve injury. If the reflex is lacking on both sides, it might suggest brain or spinal cord damage.

如果您没有注意到宝宝的惊吓反射，请不要过分担心。宝宝的医生将能够确定您的宝宝的Moro反射是否存在并且正常。如果您的婴儿医生有任何疑问，则可能需要进一步检查婴儿的肌肉和神经。
