The First Month
It’s all about feeding and sleeping at this point. Your baby will probably sleep most of the time, waking up only for food. They might get their days and nights mixed up. Don’t worry – it’s normal. It’s hard, but it won’t last forever.
Three Months In
By now, your baby is becoming more aware of their surroundings. You’ll notice them starting to smile and babble. This is also the time when they might start to hold their head up independently. Cherish these moments – they grow up fast.
Six Months Old
Sit tight, your baby is now ready to sit up on their own. They might even start crawling or pulling themselves up. Now’s the time to baby-proof the house, if you haven’t already. Watch as their personality starts to emerge. The fun is just beginning.
The Big One Year
It’s been a whirlwind of a year, hasn’t it? Your baby is now officially a toddler. They might be walking, or close to it. They’re exploring the world with newfound curiosity. It’s a joy to watch, as long as you keep an eye on them.
What’s Next?
The first year might have been full of surprises, but there’s more to come. Each year brings new milestones and challenges. As a pediatrician, I’m here to guide you. Just remember, each child is unique. They’ll reach their milestones at their own pace. Don’t rush them – take the time to enjoy each moment.
