The startle reflex, also known as the Moro reflex, is a normal reflex in infants that is present at birth and usually disappears by 3-4 months of age. The reflex is elicited by a sudden loud noise or change in position, and the infant will extend their arms and legs, then bring them back in towards their body.
If a 6-month-old infant is still demonstrating the startle reflex, it may indicate a developmental delay or neurological issue and requires further evaluation by the nurse or healthcare provider.
