Development is a continuous process from child birth. Sequence of development is same in almost all children.
Developmental delay is common, affecting 1- 3% of the population. Developmental delay is defined as a significant delay in one or more of the developmental domains.
Delayed development most commonly follows the usual pattern of development where skills are acquired more slowly. Less commonly, skill acquisition can be disordered. ‘Delay’ is a misnomer – children with developmental problems rarely ‘catch up’, and will usually have continuing difficulties with learning later in life. Global developmental delay is a common problem in pediatric practice and has a wide range of reasons. We help your child in overcoming various developmental issues.
