Baby Milestones of Progress at Seven and Eight Months

At seven months my cute baby girl is growing up bigger and prettier. As parents, we normally wonder what are the milestones of progress of our baby or child so I have checked my baby book. I wanted to know if my cute baby girl is growing up appropriately and fine.

Baby Milestones of Progress at Seven (7) Months

Your baby is Usual if baby:

Your baby is Beginning if baby:

Your baby is Ahead if baby:

• begins to understand object performance

I am so thankful and glad that my baby already have these progress except for waves goodbye. Hmm, I think I will start to teach her now to wave goodbye. Instead of waving goodbye she knows how to clap and hit your open hand with her hand (Give me five! as they say). I have observed that she is ahead because she have milestones that can be seen in an eight- month old baby.

Your baby is Ahead if baby:

My cute baby girl can say “mama”, “papa”, “dede”, and “baba”. She can stand with one hand while holding onto something. She is so playful that she searches objects when I am hiding it under pillows. My baby Miray also pulls herself to standing. Aside from milk, I am now feeding my baby with baby cereals and baby biscuits.
