How This Baby Milestone Works
Enter your baby's age in months. The tracker shows typical milestones for this stage, upcoming developmental skills to watch for, and suggested focus areas for activities. Milestones cover motor, social, cognitive, and language development.
When Should You Use This Tool
Use this tracker to understand what developmental skills to encourage at your baby's current age. It helps identify age-appropriate activities and sets realistic expectations. Review before pediatric checkups to discuss any concerns.
Is This Tool Accurate and Safe
Developmental milestones have wide normal ranges. Some babies reach milestones earlier or later than averages and are still developing typically. This tool provides general guidance based on pediatric standards. Always discuss concerns with your pediatrician. All data stays private.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if my baby misses a milestone?
Single delayed milestones rarely indicate problems. Development is uneven - babies may excel in some areas while taking longer in others. Discuss concerns with your pediatrician, especially if multiple milestones are delayed.
How can I encourage my baby's development?
Talk and read to your baby often, provide tummy time, offer age-appropriate toys, respond to their cues, and allow safe exploration. Quality interaction matters more than expensive toys or programs.
When do babies typically start walking?
Most babies walk independently between 9 and 18 months, with 12 months being average. Some healthy babies walk earlier, others later. Cruising along furniture usually precedes independent walking by 1-2 months.
What are red flags for developmental delays?
Contact your pediatrician if your baby does not smile by 3 months, does not babble by 9 months, does not respond to their name by 12 months, or loses previously gained skills at any age.
