Reflexes that a Newborn Baby Has

When a baby is born, he or she already has a lot of amazing abilities. For example, babies that have just been born already have reflexes. They do not have to learn how to grasp things because they already know how to do this. The same is true for sucking. If a newborn baby is left on his or her mother just after being born, they will automatically start suckling to eat. One of the other reflexes that babies naturally have is the ability to swim; however, they forget this ability soon after they are born. This is why we have to relearn how to swim.
