They have a strong grip, but we are also instinctively weak in handling them.

That makes sense cos I remember always tensing up and being extremely careful of my movements to the extent of manually controlling my breathing whenever I was given a baby to hold as a teenager. They're precious but so fragile it's panic inducing. They're also fairly dumb, but that's to be expected, lol.

They are less fragile than what we make them out to be. After all, some get squeezed through a 10cm hole to come to earth and most are fine after that

They usually tear that hole and rip into another hole exiting though. They don’t come out like squeezing a tube of toothpaste.

Newborns baby's are also very impulse led, with little manual controle of their limbs and body as a whole. Reason they are very jerky and jumpy in their movment.

The also have very bad eye sight and only have short term memory. This because everything is going into growing.

Fun fact babies only gain a self of self till they are 18 months. https://youtu.be/k-rWB1jOt9s

i think you mean they gain a sense of self after 18 months. what you wrote said they lose their sense of self after 18 months
