Developments In Month 2: Your Baby’s Big Start!

Intro: Congratulations, your little bundle of joy is finally here! Hello, I’m Dr. Heal! Today we will talk about your baby’s development during their first month.

Key information- In this second month, your baby weighs between 4 and 7 kg, showing some amazing growth already! Now, they might have different kinds of cries for when they’re hungry, sleepy, or uncomfortable. Your baby is also becoming self-aware and exploring their own body parts, such as their hands and legs. They’ll suck on their fists to soothe themselves.

It’s always great to chat with your baby, encouraging coos and gurgles to lay the foundation for their language development. Give them daily opportunities to strengthen their neck and shoulders through monitored tummy time. And make sure to look out for your little one’s adorable smile - a milestone you don’t want to miss this month!
