Baby Development From 6-9 Months



Day in and day out you see the baby grow inch by inch, one day they roll one day they sit up without your support and before you know your infant is a grown toddler.

From a tiny tot to a naughty little angel. By this term the babies are aware of their name and react when you call out to them with their name.

Babies’ sense of recognition has grown and they are well versed with their family members.
A mother’s role only grows as the baby grows, their attachment to the baby can be well seen. If the mother is out of sight for a little longer their hues and cries are loud enough to make you realize you have been missed.

As soon as the parent appears the baby will show her excitement by sheer screech of happiness or by stretching her hands towards you, very clearly expressing her need to be picked up and cuddled.

6-9 months is a very risky time for the mothers as they have to forever keep the child in supervision. Being able to sit and crawl around without support the babies are very inquisitive to touch and feel everything.

The touch feel factor doesn’t just end there, they are likely to pick up small objects and put it in their mouth, so adult supervision at this stage and onwards becomes very important.
This period is a good time to start some solid foods for the baby as the more they grow the hungrier they will be.

Their nonstop babbles, their different sounds will keep you entertained all thru the day.

By this time the babies are accustomed to sleep all thru the night, with just one mid night feed. They are active all thru the day with may be just 1 or 2 small naps during day time.

Games like peek-a-boo, clapping your hands and some animal sounds chirpy music will keep the baby happy and entertained.

This is a comfortable period where the mother and child both are well set and adapted to each others routine, at this stage the mother gets ample time to herself as the baby will also be happy being attended by the other family members.
