MILESTONES
“DEFINITE LANDMARKS IN THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE CHILD”
“The science of embryology and our knowledge of the evolution of man is the foundation of medicine. They are the two sources that reveal to us the nature of all so-called diseases.” Dr. med. Ryke Geerd Hamer
ØFrom homoeopathy point of view, every stage of development of the child from intrauterine life to neonatal is important. After the journey of 9 month in the mother womb when when child opens the eye development of the child begins.. As the modern science considers many causes for delayed milestones,birth disorders ,gentic disorders.
As a homeopathic physician we need to consider underlying cause at psyche level as per Dr hahnemann . What mental stress mother has suffer during 9th month of pregnancy as it is believed that there is a direct relation between the mother and the foetus ,so the conflict , stress which mother has suffered having directly impact on the newborn so here it is become important to know each and every face of embryological life and after birth milestone knowledge become important for treating Disorders
The organism of the infant and of the mother vibrates in the same frequency. The mother/child and child/mother conflict is therefore associated and registered in the same brain relay.
Ø The term “ delayed milestones “ or “developmental delays “ is used to describe the condition where a child does not reach one of these stages at the expected age or a set of functional skills or age specific task that child can do at a certain age .
During the foetal stage inside the womb , the child undergoes development and growth , which is a natural process.
Inside the womb , its growth and development is judged by the uterine height , foetal movements and its kicks . After 9 months of full term growth , he opens his body in the new world , the world in which he will live, grow, nuture and die. That is not the end of his development .After its 9 month of intrauterine life cannot do anything and is fully dependent on its parents initially .However , this does not remain for long , soon he will start responding to its environment when his own nervous system starts maturing .This process is called development .
CAUSES –
Delayed or developmental milestones can be caused by many different things , including –
- Low birth weight
- Poor nutrition
- Chronic disease
- Genetic trait
- Brain injury
- Infections
When we talk about natural development , we are talking about developmental skills are as follows which are categorised under sub category –
Motor development – classified further as fine and gross motor
- Fine motor – using hands to be able to eat , draw , dress , play , write and do many other things .
- Gross motor – using large group of muscles to sit , stand , walk and run etc .
Language development – Using body language , gestures , speaking coordinating as well as understanding what others say
Cognitive development – Thinking skills like learning , understanding and reasoning
Social development – includes integrating and relating with family , friends ,teachers etc
HOMOEOPATHIC APPROACH –

In homoeopathy there is lots of medicines and full of rubrics that can really guide about the delayed mile stones – for example
From synthesis repertory –
- Mental retardation
- Down syndrome
- Development slow
- Idiocy
- Autism
- Imbecility
- Angelman’s syndrome
- Laron’s syndrome etc
Homoeopathic physician should diagnose the cause behind this milestones .We can’t treat the child blindly without proper diagnosis .What we actually need is a proper case taking about state of pregnancy , the state of mind during pregnancy , the state of mind of father during pregnancy , whole history of motherhood journey and try to find out exactly what is the cause behind the milestones development once we find the cause and then we are nearer to similimum with the help of constitutional symptoms like generals , mentals (totality of symptoms )
