Welcome to the seventh month! It's halftime, baby, so get ready for the show, and what a show it will be, featuring plenty of baby breakthrough performances; adding consonants to that repertoire of sweet sounds or longer chains of babble and repeat performances baby will relish repeating over and over again, like fake coughing.
All the world's a stage for your little interactor these days and he'll take plenty of curtain calls as you cheer him on. Baby's also eager to explore the world, at least as much as she can reach, an area that's definitely expanding as your aspiring adventurer learns to propel herself. Maybe it's sideways via fast flips, maybe it's forward or backward as baby inches towards crawling, maybe it's spinning in a circle. Dragging herself on her belly, scooting, or rocking back and forth on her hands and knees, it's just a matter of time before baby's days of staying put are over.
Another trick baby may have up her sleeve, pivoting when sitting, so she can reach something she's spied to one side. Your little manipulator is figuring out how to deploy fingers, not just fists, to reach for objects and to drag them over for a closer look and possibly a taste, so watch those wily fingers like a mother or father hawk.
Everything your baby does is a memory in the making, though you'll want to use your camera for backup. But did you know memories are actually being captured by your baby's growing brain too and being used every day to make play and social interactions more fun and engaging?
He'll likely remember familiar people and animals, books and toys, music. He may start to recognize you as Mommy and Daddy, the cat as Chloe. He may turn when you say his name and even stop a beat, though definitely not comply when you say no, a word he has probably heard plenty already.
Your little one's emotional IQ is also growing. Not only will your baby show her feelings, she'll begin to read yours by the look on your face and the tone of your voice. And though she still won't have a clue who her mirror image is, she'll start to engage that smiling baby she sees, even stroking her face.
Your little one will start adding gestures to explain what he wants, like reaching his arms out for a pick-me-up. And yes, begin to understand the fine art of button pushing, as in, pick-me-up, now. Keep responding to your baby, who feels more secure in exploring when he knows you're always there when he needs you. You're the first place he'll turn when he's looking for help.
With independent mobility just around the corner, it's time to do a complete baby-proofing of your home if you haven't yet. Get down to baby level, on the floor, on your hands and knees, to survey her surroundings for potential trouble spots. Always overestimate your little one's reach, and though she won't understand them yet, it's smart to start planting safety seeds for the future, using warning words like ouch, boo-boo, hot, sharp, don't touch, careful.
Stimulating your baby now means pulling out all the talking stops and breaking often for books, music, and movement. It also means introducing more challenging play. Think stacking and sorting toys, toys that encourage crawling, cars or balls that roll, light up, make music, action-reaction toys, baby shakes, it rattles, baby presses, it spins, roly poly toys that wobble, but don't tip over, anything baby can safely bang on or push. Here's to a happy, busy seventh month.
I have been following you since I was 2 months pregnant. My baby is now 7 months old
HEIDI! You are perfect..
I was about 2 months also when I started watching her videos and we're now 7months🤗
Same! Mine is now 7 months🙂
She’s a great creator but not perfect lol
There’s something about watching infant development videos after having watched all the pregnancy videos😭😩❤️
I agree! During my wife’s pregnancy we watched month to month videos. Now with our baby boy, we’ve been watching month to month videos as well, hes 7 months!
Same lol
@@joesaldivar6680 same.
Yes lol
Yess 🥹
My baby fake coughs and when I tell him to stop with a serious face he laughs at me. He so adorable. He will be 7 months tomorrow
My lil man just made 7months today..and he is definitely on the move. He cries to get down like he's ready to walk😊☺💙
My baby cries and I pick him up and he'll turn his little head towards the TV and when it's still off, he'll go back to crying. 😂 Its the cutest thing 'little manipulator' lol and it's so hard getting him out of that loop but I'm determined to keep screens away as much as possible for a few years.
I am a 41 year old father with 7 months twins. This was spot on
This put my mind at ease about my son's crawling progress, thank you 💛
So glad they made this series i watch since I was pregnant. This is so help ful as a first time parent
Me too
I remember her voice while I was pregnant in 2020 helped a lot as a first time mom
My little one will be 7 months July 30th 🥺 I love these videos, I’ve been watching them weeks by weeks since I was pregnant
Awh that's my baby's birthday 🥰
The fake cough is too true lol
😭 middle of the night looking up tips and guidance for my Jr. Thank goodness we have CZcams
My 7 month old is trying to stand up. He stands up like a drunk person 😅
My baby is 7 months and has lots of communication she is crawling and taking steps. She is climbing onto things. Pulling herself up to stand. These milestones are all off for her. Now my son these were on point lol
When I was 7 months old, I loved 💘 my Cloth Training Underwear and my Plastic Underwear that I put on my Cloth Training Underwear with my Plastic Underwear on top! If I had too pee, I held my pee and especially loved 💘 putting on my Cloth Training Underwear with my Plastic Underwear on top and always loved 💘 peeing a flood inside my Cloth Training Underwear with my Plastic Underwear on top sitting inside my pee inside my Cloth Training Underwear with my Plastic Underwear on top and loved 💘 my Cloth Training Underwear not being taken off! If she pees a flood inside her New Cloth Training Underwear with her New Plastic Underwear on top, must she love 💘 her New Cloth Training Underwear with her Plastic Underwear on top? How would she feel or react if her New Cloth Training Underwear with her Plastic Underwear on top isn't taken off?
Fake coughing is funny to watch . I always ask my charge if he is alright and show a little bit of fake worry when he coughs . It makes him feel that I'm just as concerned about him as mom and dad are while they are away .
Thanks for bringing that up Heidi .
My baby doesn't roll over anymore and hates tummy time. My mom says I carry her too much. I'm all alone during the day. My family is 1600miles away. Moving in two weeks to be closer to family & help. I hope I haven't damaged my little one. 🥺
I’m having the same problem too 🥲
You didn’t damage anything. There’s nothing wrong with carrying babies. ♥️
Same here, don't worry our little ones will be mobile soon I'm sure of it. I had my daughter in a jumper alot. I recently found out it delays development. Now I am also worried I delayed her skills to become mobile. Trying to do little exercise to build up her core now and much less jolly jumping. Keep faith in the lord and he will guide us ❣️
Just realized this comment is a year ago lol. How long would you say she started getting mobile after you watched this video?
Wow my baby is fake coughing 🤣🤣 this is why I watch these videos
"Baby's days of staying put are over." Girl, those days have been over for 2 months for me 😫
My baby knows the mirror is used to see mommy behind her. When she spots me in the mirror far behind her, she turns around. She also knows she can watch TV in the mirror.
😘👩👍👍👍
My little baby is having 7 and mostly 8 months and she want to walk! God bless her
The babies are so cuteeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!☺️😊😍
Well my baby is 7 months old and cant even do tummy time without crying....
I stopped after hearing the list. Very frustrating.
My son cries when if I cough too much. (He gets scared) He also starting to understands no, probably because he’s the youngest of 4....So he hears it A LOT 😂
My 6 month old cries to the sound of the blender. He hates loud noises 😂
In this time of Covid I was concerned about the coughing...glad to know she was faking it...she just turned 7 months yesterday
My 6.5 baby does this. I was so worried cz whenever I asked his pedia he check d his chest with sthethoscope and said it is normal. But then why he coughs like old man was worrying me. Now I know he does fake coughing. Lol.
My Velcro baby learned the pick me up gesture at 4 months. 😂😂😂 I put him in the activity center and he cries and throws his arms up until I get him and if I don’t he slams his arms down in frustration. Funny little things babies are 😂
my baby just turned 7 months today 💕
GREAT VIDEO!! Thank you 🙏🏾✨
I think I need to be watching what to expect from an 8 months old baby because my child is 6 months and shes already doing everything on here 😅😅
My baby half way crawls. Won't move her arms but thinks her legs alone will get her everywhere. I wonder if she'll be 1 of those. Screw crawling, I'm gonna walk.. I just hafta get there first
I know your comment was 2 years ago but same for me, my daughter will be 6 months next week and already does almost all of these and has been for a while 😂
“Your little manipulator” 🤣 that sounds about right! Hahaha
My baby fake coughs haha he does i think to get my attention lol
Mine sat @ 7 months on his own he’s been very good at balance he surprised me with that Christmas Day 💙 but besides making it an every day routine what else can I do to help him. ?
Very accurate always
Saying words already did I hear that right?? At his recent dr visit the dr said he should start talking which had me like😮 I was not aware they should be talking this soon? Even with my 1st born who’s now 5 didn’t say mama or dada until 9/10M but he’s speech delayed which makes me now stress on my baby now because with my first I read to him and talked to him a lot
Me and my 7 old month baby watching together
My baby just hit 7 months lol she came a long way
Started crawling right at 7 months :)
Am afraid my baby have not craw and she will be 7month two week for now
Awesome
Cute!
He does this and he is 6 months and 2 weeks
My baby crawl n standing at 5 months
Mine too🤣
My baby is six months old now but she doesn't roll up ....but she can sit ...she is very active ....her weight is also good 8.6 kg .....she tries to sit but does not want to roll .. is this normal ?
This the second baby I watched this for lol pregnancy and all my baby is 6 months now
Did she just call our baby’s “little manipulators” 😭😭
My 6 month old will be 7 months and she is crawling already.
When a 7 month hasnt start doing all this is it normal
Wowww my baby started crawling at 3 months. Sit unsupported at 4. Now she's almost 7 months and is training hard to walk. So at which month development should i watch now?
There’s no way your baby was developmentally advanced enough to crawl at 3 months and walk at 7 months.
Same
Well don’t laugh at me but every single one I have watched as my daughter gets older and she will be 7 months next month.
my baby is 7 months but he does nt crawl nd roll over but can sit..is it any abnormal condition
same
Mine too...
A boy
my 7months old too
Same here
bhavesh Varma it all depends on the baby cause my daughter never crawl she went right into walking and she is now she is 11 years old
My 7 month old baby is not sitting
may baby too and not crawl
My baby is 7 month old but he is still not sitting and crawling but he rolling over pls reply is it normal
My oldest daughter is now 3. She didn't sit up probably until she was 8 months. Then started to crawl at nearly 9 months. it's completely normal but if your concern you can always take them to a pediatrician.❤️
We’re the same. My 7 month doesn’t sit straight yet. Doesn’t even crawl yet. Just still rolls a lot. No worries mommy.
my baby too
Mine too
My baby too ❤️❤️
My baby is army crawling its so cute
My baby be standing he just turned 7 mouths
I have 5 week old twins binge watching all these
What age did ur babies start walking ?
I can't really speak for my 6 month old yet but with my first she started walking a week before her first birthday. I know this is an old post and your baby is already walking by now but just thought I'd answer for anyone scrolling through curious.
💕💕
Also me
He’s become a busy body.
My mom calls the same behavior rambunctious.
My baby girl is 6 months and she does all these things in the video
Okay good for you?
It's all depending on your baby!
It’s the fake coughing for me 😅
HA ! Same .
When I was 7 months old, I loved 💘 my Training Underwear with my Plastic Underwear on top, that I put on my Training Underwear with my Plastic Underwear on top! I always held my pee to put on my Training Underwear with my Plastic Underwear on top!
Wtf?
