Almost all children are restless. They want to see, touch and taste everything. And this is normal, so the child develops and learns the world around him. But there are situations when the activity of the baby just rolls over. That's when a diagnosis can be made: hyperactivity.

But it is worth noting that it is necessary to consider the development process not from the moment of birth, but already from the very moment of conception. The future hyperactivity of the child can be affected by severe toxicosis of the mother, diseases of the internal organs, stressful situations during pregnancy. That is why doctors recommend the right diet and rest for expectant mothers.
Early age
It is almost impossible to detect hyperactivity in an infant, but it will clearly be visible when the baby is 2-3 years old. But still there are newborn hyperactive children. Symptoms that may indicate this: frequent and causeless crying of the baby, he is bad. Early development can also tell about hyperactivitychild: if the baby sat down early or walked, but at the same time his movements are clearly clumsy compared to peers.

Most often, children with this symptom have problems in the learning process.
