In daily life, parents must observe any signs of their baby. When any abnormal symptoms are found in a three-year-old baby, parents should pay close attention, which may be caused by developmental delay. At this time, timely treatment is necessary to avoid harm to the baby. So what are the signs of developmental delay in a three-year-old baby?
1. Poor chewing ability. A three-year-old baby can chew things normally through their own teeth. If it is found that the baby's chewing ability is poor, it indicates that the baby's intellectual development is delayed, and their chewing ability will continue to decline. It will not be until very late that the baby learns to chew things normally. It may also be found that the baby has difficulties swallowing, indicating that the baby's nervous system development has been damaged, which will also affect their intellectual development in the future.
2. Extremely quiet or crying. Delayed brain development in babies can first lead to frequent crying and fussing. Some babies may also exhibit symptoms of not crying or fussing, as well as some abnormalities in quietness. Both of these situations occur too frequently, and parents should pay more attention.
3. Language backwardness. When a three-year-old baby speaks, their expression ability is relatively clear. If it is found that the baby still cannot speak completely, their speech and pronunciation are not clear, and some children have slow reactions, no interest in the people and things around them, and do not like to communicate with others, their language expression ability will be relatively poor.
