One sperm from the thousands fertilized the egg and I was conceived.
-
-
I started my physical development, starting to develop hands and feet. Also my heart, spine and brain started to form.
-
My cells reproduced to form most of my body. Now in my final prenatal stage which is fetus.
-
My hands, feet, brain, and heart have all formed but have very little use. I have started to kick my mom to just remind her that I am here. The kicking has started due to brain forming connections to other parts in the brain (cognitive dev).
-
(Cognitive dev) Thalic brain connections have formed.
(Physical dev) Bones fully formed and nails have grown till the fingertips. I have come into this world healthy and well thanks to my mom staying clear of teratogens. -
I had started using my senses to understand my world and form shemas, mainly using hearing because my eye sight was horrible. My behavior was all reflexes.

When I was hungry I started crying, hoping my parents would give me food and luckily they did. This allowed me to trust them because they always gave me what I wanted.

I had officially said "Mama!" when I was playing with my mom (Motor and Cognitive Development).

I could now stand up and try to walk to my toys but would always fall (Motor Development).

When we went to the mall once, I wanted to explore, and with the help of my new skill: walking, no one could stop me!! I ended up coming back to my parents, who were running around the mall trying to find me, with a security guard and a lollipop in my mouth. (Motor Development)

At my sister's birthday party, I was scared by so many strangers coming up to me and my parents, that everytime someone came I always hid behind my dad's soft pants because my mom's abayya was annoying and itchy. This relates to Harlow's monkey test.
-
We had gone to the mall, and I really wanted sugar so I said, "I want lollipop," and I got it (Cognitive and Motor Development). This relates to Piaget's Preoperational stage when children start to talk.

I can now control my bladder! I no longer have to wear those itchy pampers! This refers to Freud's Anal Stage and Erickson's Autonomy vs Shame & Doubt.

It was my first day in daycare, and my parents were talking to the teacher. So, I started playing with the toys but when they left I felt scared because I was in a strange situation. A teacher came to me to try and stop my crying. I felt even more scared because I was having stranger anxiety. Luckily my parents came and I ran into my mom's arms and never went to that daycare again.

-
I had figured out that there were boys and girls and realized that I was a boy. I then competed with my father for the attention of my mother. If both of them were laying down watching tv, I would get in the middle of them in an attempt to get closer to my mom.
-
In kindergarten now, and just forming schemas of my world. I thought only kids wear cartoon shirts and assimilated that throughtout the year. But on character day all my teachers were wearing cartoon shirts so I had to accomodate that schema.

-
I fought with my sister and when my parents asked me what happened I blamed it on her when really I was the one who started it by ripping her doll's head off. This shows egocentrism because I did what's best for me not what is right.

In science I learned that objects have the same volume, area, and number even if their form has changed. (Concepts of Conservation)

Right before going into middle school, my parents sat me down and told me that I have to do good in school and I asked "Why?"
They told me so I can be successful later in life. -

Today in school I felt scared in math class because all the other kids knew how to find x and I didn't. But in English I felt so good because I knew more than most of the students.

Today I found the perfect group of people to hang out with. we all have the same interests and some of the same concepts.

-
In eighth grade I learned to contrast ideas in my head. I could form a debate in my head about a certain idea. I also learned how to reflect on the way I solved a certain problem and learn from it for the next time, especially for math problem solving.
-
-
Today I realized my parents are authoritative, not permissive nor authoritative, because when I wanted to go out they asked if I had done my homework. I said no and therefore they didn't let me go out. However when I finished it a few hours later, they let me go out because I followed their one rule.
