level 3: 1.3 Describe factors that may impact upon the development of the baby during: the first year

[suziewilkes]

Hi, I need help on part of the following question:
1.3 Describe factors that may impact upon the development of the baby during: the first year. I wrote about: Home environment, relationships, alcohol, smoking, drug abuse and mental health
I got the assignment returned because i missed writing about: disabilities and health problems. When I do research it just brings up mental health issues and child's disability. I'm having a mental block, any advice appreciated, also do I write about the child's disability or the parents disability (in the others I wrote about the parent)
Thanks for your help
Suzanne

Sight impairment

Hearing impairment

Health problems include Asthma, eczema, allergies such as dairy intolerance, gluten intolerance that mean particular diets and considerations are needed.
