Newborn_ab_02.jpg</wikiflv> This is a 3 weeks old infant.
  • The baby has full conjugate eye movements.
  • The face has a bland appearance, but tickling the feet produces a full grimace and facial muscles are normal.
  • The baby’s cry is not high pitched but is softer and not as sustained as one would expect. (The baby has a poor suck, which is demonstrated in the primitive reflex section of the exam.)
