| Motor, cognitive and Personal- social skills. Timepoint: 1 and 3 months after delivery. Method of measurement: The Peabody Developmental Motor Scales are used to assess the development of motor skills from birth through 5 years. In this study, the gross motor subscales included reflex, stationary, locomotion and fine motor subscales were grasping, and visual-motor integration were used. Each infant’s raw scores were eventually turned into standard scores and Development Motor Quotient (DMQ) Ages and Stages III: In this study, Ages and stages Questionnaire III (ASQ 3) was used to evaluate the development rate of Personal- Social skills component in 1 &3 months. The ASQ Questionnaire is the screening questionnaire of development in five areas of development (gross motor, fine motor, communication, problem solving, and social personal) to assess infants and declares developmental situation compared to the cut-off points.

ASQ-3 has excellent sensitivity (0.86) and specificity (0.85) that has adequate accuracy for screening. Strong test-retest reliability of 0.75 to 0.82, inter-rater reliability by comparing the filled-in forms to parents and professional examiners was 0.93.;Motor, Cognitive and Communication Skills.
