CEREBRAL PALSY SIGNS

  • Home
  • CEREBRAL PALSY SIGNS

Signs that your child is experiencing developmental delays include:

  • Difficulty controlling head movements after 2 months
  • Dragging one side of the body while crawling or inability to sit by him/herself after 10 months
  • Inability to crawl or stand with support after 1 year
  • Inability to walk after 2 years
  • The persistence of infantile reflexes such as sucking after they should have disappeared

Additional cerebral palsy symptoms parents should look for in their child include:

  • Abnormal muscle tone such as overly stiff or rigid muscles (hypertonia), or excessively flaccid or relaxed muscles (hypotonia)
  • Unusual posture due to muscle impairment on one side of the body.
  • Early hand preference, which doesn’t usually occur until after 12 months but often occurs earlier in children with cerebral palsy
  • Limited range of motion in joints
