Detailed explanation-1: -A parent of an 8-month-old infant tells the nurse that the baby cries and screams whenever he or she is left with the grandparents. The nurse’s reply should be based on knowledge that what is true? The infant is most likely spoiled. This is a normal reaction for this age.
Detailed explanation-2: -All normal infants have a neck righting reflex by age 8 to 10 months, after which it becomes part of voluntary activity. Hand grasp: An infant is able to reach and grasp with his whole hand by 4 to 5 months of age.
Detailed explanation-3: -Wait until your baby is at least 4 months old and shows these signs of readiness before starting solids. Many babies exclusively breastfeed until 6 months of age, which is perfectly healthy. Babies who start solid foods before 4 months are at a higher risk for obesity and other problems later on.
Detailed explanation-4: -At around 10 months old, your baby will most likely have a full understanding of the concept of object permanence. For example, if you hide a toy underneath a blanket, he’ll know to pick up the blanket and look for the toy.
