“…In contrast to these studies, Piper and Darrah (1994) note that 50% of infants roll prone-to-supine without and with trunk rotation at 6 and 7 months respectively and 50% roll supine-to-prone without and with trunk rotation at about 5.6 months and 6.6 months respectively. 'Roll over' in the Denver Developmental Screening Test (Frankenburg et al 1981(Frankenburg et al , 1992 means that the child is seen to roll from back-to-stomach or from stomach-toback, or the parents have seen the infant roll completely over from back-to-stomach or from stomach-to-back at least twice. Based on this definition, we compared infants in this study with those in other reported studies (Table III).…”

“…However subsequent clinical experience indicated that infants were showing more rapid motor development than would be expected from these traditional studies (Capute et al 1985). The Denver Developmental Screening Test, revised and restandardized in 1992, was based on 2096 black, Hispanic, and white infants in Colorado, USA and differs somewhat to the previous version (Table III; Frankenburg et al 1981Frankenburg et al , 1992. The Denver Developmental Screening test has been evaluated in a number of different countries (Ueda 1978a,b;Song et al 1982;Miller et al 1984;Lim et al 1994) and it has been suggested that cultural influence and patterns of child-rearing may play a role in explaining some of the apparent delays noted.…”

A preliminary cross-sectional study of 72 Hong Kong Chinese infants suggested that these infants learn to roll from supineto-prone before rolling from prone-to-supine i.e. the opposite to teaching in most western texts. Three-hundred and sixty mothers were recruited postpartum and asked to record, on a chart, information related to the developmental milestone of rolling over for their infants (49% male) during the next 9 months. Telephone reminders were given at 4 and 8 months and, by the end of the study, information had been obtained from 240 mothers (67% of original sample, 51% male infants). Mean ages of rolling over were 5.1 months (SD1.5) for supine-to-prone and 5.7 months (SD1.3) for prone-tosupine. Age of rolling over from supine-to-prone was not influenced by usual sleep position, infant's sex, mother's intention to breastfeed infant, number of siblings, marital status, main daytime caregiver, or feeding method over 9 months. Hong Kong Chinese infants roll from supine-toprone before they roll from prone-to-supine.

“…During follow-up examinations at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months of age, details on the age of achieving developmental milestones were obtained, according to the revised Denver Developmental Scale (16). The developmental milestones "lifting head while prone" and "following with eyes" were defined as "early" developmental milestones, whereas "walking without help" and "speaking first words" were defined as "late" developmental milestones, representing children's neurodevelopment.…”

Impact of Early Neonatal Breast-Feeding on Psychomotor and Neuropsychological Development in Children of Diabetic Mothers

OBJECTIVE -In general, breast-feeding positively influences development of psychomotor function and cognition in children. Offspring of diabetic mothers (ODM) have delayed psychomotor and cognitive development. Recently, we observed a dose-dependent negative effect of early neonatal ingestion of breast milk from diabetic mothers (diabetic breast milk [DBM]) on the risk of overweight during early childhood. Here, we investigated the influence of early neonatal intake of DBM on neurodevelopment in ODM. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS-A total of 242 ODM were evaluated for age of achieving major developmental milestones (Denver Developmental Scale) according to the volume of DBM ingested during the first week of life, using Kruskal-Wallis and Kaplan-Meier analysis.RESULTS -Children in the upper tertile of early neonatal ingestion of DBM achieved early psychomotor developmental milestones ("lifting head while prone," "following with eyes") earlier than those in lower tertiles (P ϭ 0.002). In contrast, a delay in the onset of speaking was observed in children who had ingested larger volumes of DBM compared with those with lower DBM intake (P ϭ 0.002). This negative impact of DBM ingestion was not confounded by birth characteristics, total milk intake, or socioeconomic/educational status. CONCLUSIONS -Our data indicate differential effects of early neonatal DBM ingestion on psychomotor and cognitive development. Ingesting larger compared with smaller volumes of DBM may normalize early psychomotor development in ODM but delays onset of speaking as a parameter indicative of cognitive development. This effect may result from qualitative alterations in the composition of DBM. Further studies are urgently recommended on the benefits and harms of breastfeeding in ODM. Diabetes Care 28:573-578, 2005B reast-feeding is the best way to nurture healthy-term offspring of healthy mothers. It is well known to have positive short-and long-term effects, e.g., decreased risk of obesity or type 2 diabetes (1,2). Furthermore, evidence exists of a positive influence of breast feeding on psychomotor and cognitive development (3,4), persisting into adult age (5).Positive long-term effects of breastfeeding have been attributed to the composition of breast milk, including factors promoting neurodevelopment, such as long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (6). However, it has rarely been considered so far whether breast-feeding is still of advantage if the mother is affected by a noncommunicable disease, e.g., a metabolic disease, which may alter the composition of breast milk.Offspring of diabetic mothers (ODM) have delayed psychomotor and cognitive development (7-10). Pathophysiologic mechanisms remain unknown. Recently, we showed that early neonatal intake of breast milk from diabetic mothers may dose-dependently lead to an increased risk of overweight and impaired glucose tolerance during early childhood (11). Here, we evaluated whether the early neonatal intake of diabetic breast milk (DBM) may also influence cognitive and psychomotor developm...

“…The children's prenatal mercury exposure was assessed by measuring the concentration of mercury in a segment of maternal hair representative of the hair formed during pregnancy. At 6.5 months of age, the children were given a neurologic examina tion, tests of visual recognition memory (18) and visual attention (19), and the Denver Developmental Screening Test -Revised (20). The Bayley Scales of Infant Development (21) were given at 19 months and again at 29 months.…”
