0-3 months[edit | edit source]

[1]
OVERALL 1-2 MONTHS 2-3 MONTHs
SUPINE physiologic flexion hip and knee;

unable to hold head in midline

sporadic head to midline;

sporadic cervical rotation;

increased extensor activity;

asymmetry of limbs

hands to midline;

symmetrical movement patterns;

PRONE increased physiologic flexion hip and knee;

elbows posterior to shoulders;

head to side

slight head lift to 45 degrees;

unable to hold head in midline;

flexion contractures decreased

able to push through hands;

start to lift head and shoulders;

head lift to 45 degrees

SITTING weight of head pulls them anterior;

shoulders anterior to hips;

unable to hold head in midline wide base of support (ring sitting)

need a lot of support at proximal trunk

pull to sit- head lag;

not able to hold head in midline

pull to sit-able to tuck chin and hold in midline;

vertical righting;

weight bear through hands (propped sitting)

STANDING supported standing;

reflexive moment in response to stimuli on plantar aspect

begin to accept weight;

astasia-abasia,

OVERALL 5 MONTHS 6 MONTHS
ALL POSITIONS better head control;
