Measure your child's head

I had ever taken  my children to a different pediatrician when they got sick. Several checks were did by the doctor, something caught my attention was the child's head measurements. Whether the measurement is done to determine the child's abnormality, such as the existence head disease or the head enlargement out of the ordinary. After I read the tabloids head measurements were health of children is very important, because it involves the growth of the brain. However, not all pediatricians do it. Therefore, for those who have babies, or expecting a baby, it's good to read this article.
Enlargement of the head is one of  the growth sign of children. Growing up means the addition of physical size, such as weight, height and head circumference. So each month must be growth in the reach including head circumference. And if there was no increase head size in two months , there is a problem with the baby brain.
And the development itself is the lack of progress in the function of individual ability, such as crawling, babbling, and others. Children growth and development is concentrate to the brain.

Brain growth and development that began during the third  semester of pregnancy until the baby get three years old.
In the first to third years of  baby age is the most important period in brain growth. Since this time the brain will grow by leaps and bounds. So, it is recommended that the baby gets proper nutrition. Breast milk is the perfect nutrition for infants.

The breast milk content are DHA and AA. The content is highly in need for growth and development of the brain and retina of the eye is booming. Taurine is also needed, if the deficiency, the child will have a poor mental development. Very important nutrition content in breast milk are iron, choline and zinc.

Iron is needed for circulation of oxygen and DNA replica. If the child doesn’t get enough iron, mental and motor will be sluggish.
Substance choline is needed for learning and memory processes of child. And zinc itself to the development of central nervous system of child.
In addition to proper nutrition, stimulation also is needed to help accelerate the development of the child's brain. Which for this stimulation I will discuss in the next article ( the stimulation for the child )
