Newborn baby's grip reflex,shown on an adult finger. This automatic response occurs for about the first 4 months of life in the hands and feet,helping to prevent falls. This baby boy is being cared for in a hospital at a special care baby unit (SCBU). Special care baby units are for newborn babies that need a certain level of care,but not as much as those needing intensive care. This may be due to early birth,or while recovering from surgery.
