Please share when did your kid reach certain milestones as a baby?
I would love to know since mine is reaching them a bit too early(or so I think) I guess:konfused: she started lifting her head when she wasnt even a month old. She is 2.5months old and she already loves to stand on her feet..heck she wanted to stand when she turned 1month old..she started her smiles, laughs, oohs aahs and aguus before other kids do(thats what everyone around me says)
She now holds her head straight..loves to look around..lifts her shoulders when on tummy..and wants to move forward(like crawling) when on tummy..guess all this is average but I just wanted to share:hehe:
Plus if she is lying down and we hold her hands she wants to sit up by lifting her head and back(she tries but cant lift her back as yet)
And she is already wearing size 4 pampers:blush: what will she wear when she grows up..adult diapers?
She looks taller than her age already but maybe thats just the genes:halo:
Oh I lub her so much:wub:
Seems like your baby is right on track Masha Allah:
Age 1-3 Months
Between 1-3 months of age, babies begin the transformation from being a totally dependent newborn to becoming an active and responsive infant. Many of the newborn reflexes are lost by this age. At this age, a baby’s vision changes dramatically; he becomes more aware and interested in his/her surroundings. A baby might follow a moving object, recognize familiar things and people at a distance, and start using his/her hands and eyes in coordination. At this age, babies usually turn toward familiar voices and smile at their parent’s faces or other familiar faces. They also begin to coo (make musical vowel sounds, such as ooo or aaa).
The neck muscles become stronger during these first few months. At first, babies can only hold their heads up for a couple of seconds while on their stomachs. The muscles are strengthened each time the head is held up. By 3 months of age, babies lying on their stomachs can support their heads and chests up to their forearms.
Arm and hand movement develops fast during this stage. What was once a tight, clenched fist is now an open hand grabbing and batting at objects. Babies explore their hands by bringing them in front of their face and putting them in their mouths.
By the end of this period, most babies have reached the following milestones:
Motor Skills
Supports head and upper body when on stomach
Stretches out legs and kick when on stomach or back
Opens and shut hands
Brings hands to mouth
Grabs and shakes hand toys
Swipes and bats at dangling objects
Pushes down legs when on a flat surface
Follows moving objects
Language Skills
Makes cooing sounds
Social/Emotional Skills
Smiles at familiar faces
Enjoys playing with other people
