                                            A great little chart on developmental signals                                        
                                    
                                                                        
                                        The gaps you may find in a child’s learning and foundational development if…
They have one or more retained Primitive Reflexes.
 
Primitive reflexes develop in the womb or when the baby is born. If unintegrated when the child is born, they can cause a whole slew of issues for the child as they grow older.
You may not know if a reflex is retained, but you will see some red flags that don’t make sense.
Some of the following delays you may find include:
🤭Delayed reading and writing skills
🤭Attention and focus trouble
🤭Sensory sensitivities
🤭Trouble with following directions and completing tasks
🤭Can be very emotional (fight or flight)
🤭Doesn’t know how to interact with peers
Children with retained Primitive Reflexes won’t “grow out” of them as they get older because the reflexes can’t integrate on their own. Many times, they will continue to cause trouble as the child enters adulthood.
