In the first 12 months of your little one’s life, you’ll watch them learn and experience so many things for the first time! From their first smile, to learning to walk and talk, seeing your baby grow in front of your eyes is an amazing experience. In the first few months, you’ll be able to experience your baby's first bath time, their first smile, and watch them get used to breastfeeding.
As you reach the six month mark, you’ll likely begin to experience your little one teething, and will probably find yourself on the hunt for fast-acting teething remedies in the middle of the night. You’ll also want to start reading up on weaning and different methods such as baby led weaning, so you’re ready when your baby is ready to start weaning!
Once you’re on the way towards the one year mark, it might be time to start baby-proofing the house, as your little one takes their first wobbly steps! Don’t forget to read up on how to talk to your baby to enhance their language skills.
With all baby milestones, remember that all babies develop at different rates. If you ever feel concerned about your little one’s development, don’t hesitate to reach out to your GP or your health visitor..
It’s safe to say that keeping your baby healthy and safe is a top priority for all new parents. Here are a few things to think about when it comes to keeping your little one safe:
- Safe sleeping: Make sure to create a safe sleep environment for your little one. Check out our simple steps to establishing a safe sleep routine for your baby, and how to stick to it.
- Car seat safety: Are you feeling confused about all of the different safety aspects and things to think about when shopping for your baby’s car seat? Have a read of our guide to car seat safety.
- Know when to see a doctor: It can be difficult to tell when your little one is seriously ill, especially as they can’t properly communicate how they’re feeling. It’s important to trust your instincts with your baby’s health, and know when to take your baby to their GP
- Weaning safety: Moving your little one onto solid foods is an adventurous time, but it can be nerve-wracking. The risk of choking is greater with baby-led weaning, and it’s always best to attend a baby first aid course before getting started.
