All children develop at different rates. Here is a list of very general ideas that a typical one month old may be able to do: Arm and Leg Movements are reflexes Cannot support head Stares at objects but makes no attempt to reach Needs contact with skin---loves skin to skin contact See objects at about 10 inches away Responds to human voices May begin cooing Enjoys eye contact Smiles at faces Recognizes parent’s voice Begins to trust caregiver Will cry if over stimulated Sleeps a lot Loves high contrast images At one month, your baby is getting better at associating things he hears with things he sees. Playing games with him will help him refine his/her new skills. You should talk with your baby, read to him and sing to him/her. Touch your baby every moment you can, they learn about their world this way. Respect your baby if you see that they need quiet time or seem stressed. Overstimulation can be a problem, also. Remember that all babies develop at different speeds, usually with spurts and plateaus. |
