Starting from the age of 3, the child 8 is his physicalDevelopment confidently takes a course on growing up. If all this time he still very much resembled the doll that you were carrying in the stroller, now the child will start to change greatly outwardly. This age period is extremely important, since it is up to 7 years that the child's internal organs are finally formed and acquire the form in which further development will take place.
First of all, serious changes are under wayThe appearance of your child. He begins to stretch, literally becomes thin, ribs, hips appear. Here is one of the typical dangers. Many too compassionate mothers begin to reproach themselves for lack of care, especially in the matter of nutrition and begin to literally feed the child. »For my mother, for my father, for my grandmother, for my grandfather ...», well, you understand. If you notice such moods, calm down. With your baby, everything is fine, and such changes are just the age features, not more. Remember - do no harm.
In general, one should always remember that developmentMuscle tissue at this age is very uneven. The large musculature develops quite intensively, while the small muscles (intercostals, muscles of the hands and feet) lag far behind. Therefore, your task is to give the child an unobtrusive load on the small muscles in order to encourage their development.
From the age of 5 the child begins very quicklyDevelop bone tissue. In addition to the fact that the bones themselves grow, even the cartilage tissue is replaced by the bone, the head becomes large and the baby is generally stretched out. Here there is one more psychological aspect of my mother's perception of the baby. He may not seem so beautiful to her. Again, calm down. It's all right. The Tale of the Ugly Duckling is not just folklore, believe me.
A few more words about such a touching question asTeeth. By the age of 4, definitely, the baby should have all 20 milk teeth. You also need to carefully monitor this issue. If the teeth is less - to the pediatrician and dentist.
Not only does the child directly depend on the child's healthHis mental development, but also physical. Often ill children significantly lag behind in development from their peers. Even if, in your opinion, the child has a common cold, do not be shy and do not be too lazy to call a district doctor. At this age, illnesses can easily become chronic, which many parents often do not even notice, having healed the symptoms.
