Random: Moro reflex
September 4, 2007 on 11:08 pm | No CommentsWell this post is a bit of a random slightly drunk post… but hey its my blog so I can do that!
I was browsing Digg earlier and came across a story about the Moro Reflex in babies. So most people I have tried to talk to about this think I’m just crazy but oh well! It seems to be that when babies are born, for a long time they have this reflex where if they’re dropped they put their arms out straight away, it’s presumed to try catch something to stop themselves falling. It’s quite interesting and quite funny at the same time.

Anyway, I was in the bathroom this evening and looking in the mirror, I stumbled back in a tired/sleepy way and straight away my arms went up. It really made me laugh.
So there you go, a sad and random post.
