Sense by Meg Faure is a parenting podcast that offers practical advice and insights for new parents. Hosted by Meg Faure, a well-known OT infant specialist and author of eight parenting books, each episode features conversations with real moms and dads who share their weekly wins, challenges, and questions about early parenting. In this episode, Meg speaks with Cass, a first time mum to almost nine months old, baby Max. Cass shares the good, the bad, and the ugly of parenting, starting with the good news that Max is now a fully-fledged crawler. She describes how they had to rearrange their living space and child-proof their home to keep up with his newfound mobility. Meg and Cass discuss the importance of creating a safe and stimulating environment for babies as they learn to explore their surroundings. Cass also shares some of what she calls 'the ugly' in the good, the bad and the ugly of parenting. Max has started biting. Cass and her husband are trying to teach him not to bite and to understand certain boundaries, such as not touching the radiator. They also mention the difficulty of disciplining a baby at such a young age. Meg explains that the baby's display of cause and effect is a positive sign of cognitive development, but also suggests distracting the baby rather than using negative consequences. Throughout the episode, Meg and Cass offer candid and relatable insights into the joys and challenges of early parenting. Whether you're a new parent looking for advice or just curious about what it's like to navigate this exciting and challenging stage of life, Sense by Meg Faure is a must-listen podcast.

Guest:  Rebecca “Becca” Stoddard is a pediatric occupational therapist and owner of Breakthrough Therapy based in Phoenix, AZ. Becca is enthusiastic about working with children and their families to help them achieve their gross motor milestones. Becca has completed 2 courses on Dynamic Movement Intervention (DMI). She plans to complete a 3rd course at the beginning of the year. With experience in visor therapy settings, Becca uses both intensive DMI therapy and ongoing weekly DMI therapy at her practice. She also offers a free gross motor skills screening that can be done virtually, in person, and at home.  Interview: What is Dynamic Movement Intervention (DMI)? DMI is a specialized, hands-on technique focusing on head control, trunk control, and achieving gross motor milestones. Some of those milestones are rolling, sitting, balancing, crawling, standing, and walking. DMI exercises look different from the traditional therapy approach. Some exercises use gravity and a lot of sensory input to get automatic responses from the child to help them reach milestones. There is also a unique box set that is used as the child gets older and progresses. One of the main parts of DMI is an emphasis on neuroplasticity. That's a fancy term for creating new connections in the brain. The key factor in achieving this is repetition to create those new pathways.  How do I know if my child would be a good fit for DMI therapy? When a child exhibits gross motor delays, it can be things like the inability to hold their head up, not being able to roll, and the inability to maintain balance while sitting up. In a study, gross motor delays can occur in up to 68% of children with autism. Children with autism are more at risk of delayed gross motor skills.  What are some red flag diagnoses that might be indicated for gross motor delay?  There is a wide range of diagnoses that can include gross motor delay. Some of the main ones are cerebral palsy, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injury, gross motor delays, and development delays. Every child is different and can be a possible candidate that can benefit from DMI therapy.  What is an example of what DMI therapy may look like for a child?  One example could be putting a child in an inverted upside-down position to work on core strength. The brain will automatically want to be upright when in an inverted position. Putting a baby in that position will force the body to create the desired response to be upright. Another example would be an exercise focusing on walking and stepping up on a surface. The thigh would be supported as the child tries to step up onto a box. DMI support goes from proximal to distal. As the therapy progresses, the support will go from the hips to the thigh to the ankles.  What can a parent do at home to help their child strengthen and build gross motor skills?  Parents can take their children to the playground and practice going up steps without holding onto the railing. With a baby sitting on the lap, lean him/her backward, and give the baby a chance to try and sit up to build belly muscles that work out core strength. When laying down, aid the baby with holding him/herself up with his/her arms and exercises on the knees. A website Becca refers her clients to is pathways.org as a reference to what to expect maybe their child to be doing at certain ages.  Recap:  - Work on core strength - Encourage play in various positions - Physical play with toddlers and slightly older children    Resources: www.DMItherapy.com Pathways.org | Tools to maximize child development www.breakthrough-therapy.com Instagram: @breakthrough_therapy_dmi Article Reference Research reference: Hedgecock, J.
