Definition
Like the stepping reflex, if you hold your baby under his arms, support his head, and allow his feet to bounce on a flat surface, he will extend (straighten) his legs for about 20-30 seconds to support himself, before he flexes his legs again and goes to a sitting position
Term
tonic neck reflex
Definition
while your baby is lying on his back, turn his head to one side, which should cause the arm and leg on the side that he is looking toward to extend or straighten, while his other arm and leg will flex. This reflex usually disappears by 4-9 months.

Next, lateral propping, appearing at 6-7 months, causes him to extend his arm to the side if he is tilted. Lastly, posterior propping, causing him to extend his arms backwards if he is titled backward.
