What to Expect As Your Healthy Baby Grows
Milestones
The following are some typical milestones for infants, based on age. Milestones are also called “stages of development”. Every child’s development is different. The age ranges are an estimate of when your child should reach that milestone. Fine motor skills are small muscle movements, such as using fingers to pick up objects. Gross motor skills are large muscle movements, such as rolling over or walking. Receptive language is understanding what is heard, such as turning towards a loud sound or following verbal directions. Expressive language is being able to use words or gestures to express wants and needs, such as repeating sounds and words. If you are concerned that your child is not meeting a milestone, talk to your child’s doctor.
