When should your baby smile or take their first steps? The CDC has made updates to its list of developmental milestones and Yahoo Life asked a pediatrician to explain.
Newborns typically lose 7–10% of their birth weight in the first few days, but they usually regain it within two weeks. [17] During the first month, infants grow about 1 to 1.5 inches (2.5 to 3.8 cm) and gain weight at a rate of about 1 ounce (28 g) per day. [17] Resting heart rate is generally between 70 and 190 beats per minute. [18]
By 2nd and 3rdmonth of their life, babies develop early consonant sounds like /k/ and /g/. The second half of the first year is the babbling phase where babies begin with repeated sounds like "babababa" or "mamamama". Infants vocalising more tend to develop stronger communication skills. [23] Early communication skills vary from child to child.
The Gesell Developmental Schedule believes that human development unfolds in stages, or in sequences over a given time period. These stages were considered milestones, or the manifestations of mental development. [1] Some examples are: "When the infant first rolls from back to stomach unassisted" [1] "When the child first utters words" [1]
The speed of physical growth is rapid in the months after birth, then slows, so birth weight is doubled in the first four months, tripled by 1 year, but not quadrupled until 2 years. [85] Growth then proceeds at a slow rate until a period of rapid growth occurs shortly before puberty (between about 9 and 15 years of age). [ 86 ]
