1-3 Months
During these first few months, your baby will be developing their motor skills, such as learning to control their head movements and grasping objects. They’ll also start to recognize faces and voices and respond to your touch and voice. They’ll begin to learn the difference between day and night and develop a sleep pattern.
4-6 Months
At this stage, your baby will start to sit up with support and may even start to roll over. They’ll become more aware of their surroundings and will start to reach for objects, transfer objects from one hand to the other, and bring objects to their mouth. They’ll also start to babble and mimic sounds.
7-9 Months
During these months, your baby will start to crawl, pull themselves up and stand while holding onto something. They’ll continue to babble and start to say “mama” and “dada” with meaning. They’ll also start to understand simple instructions, such as “No” and “Come here”.
