That is crawling comes before sitting<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what is GDD or Global developmental delay ?<br>When there is significant delay in two or more domains of development.<br>For example a child having motor delay and speech delay .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>RED FLAG SINGS<br>Now let us come to the red flag signs of development<br>now let us take the example of sitting with support , all of us know that sitting with support comes within 6 months . But if even at 6 months 10 days , if the child is unable to do that , that doesn\u2019t indicates the child is going through developmental delay . There\u2019s the maximum age limit of upper limit to that . So Red flag signs are those upper limits .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting off with sone important gross motor mile stones:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sitting with support : the usual age to achieve that is on six months old . The upper limit to achieve that is on 9 months old .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Standing with support : the usual age is on 9 months , but the upper limit to this is 12 months , that means if the child is unable to achieve is even on 12 months , then this is an abnormality in development<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Walking with support :<br>Usually it is achieved on 12 months , but the upper limit is 15 months . Which is the red flag<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then let\u2019s discuss about some fine motor development :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Immature pincer gasp : usually it is achieved by 9 months , but if the child is unable to achieve it on 12 months as well , then this is a red flag sign .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scribbling : the ususal age to achieve is 15 months , but if the child is not able to scribble even on 24 months (upper limit ) then it\u2019s definitely abnormal .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now moving onto social milestones :<br>Social smile : the usual age to attain age is from 1.5 to 2 months<br>But if the child is unable to do that on 3 months ( upper limit ) then definitely there\u2019s some abnormality .<br>Waves bye bye : the usual age here is 9 months and the upper limit is 12 months .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now coming to the language milestones :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Babbling : should ususally come by around 6 months , but if it is not even attained on 9 to 12 months , then that\u2019s an abnormal development<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The last one<br>Single words : should usually come by around 12 months , but if the child is unable to attain it on 16 to 18 months , then that\u2019s a red flag .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>so this is all about the abnormalities of development, see you in the next video\u00a0thank\u00a0you\u00a0!<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abnormalities of Development .In this video , we will learn about the Abnormalities of development.
