From newborn to toddler, it just takes 12 months for your baby to undergo an unbelievable transformation. Babies
grow at a rapid pace and every proceeding month brings in new developments. It is obvious that all new parents
wonder what to expect next in their baby and how to know if their baby’s development is in the right track. No
matter what pace your baby develops, there is a fairly wide window for a baby to reach every developmental stage.
You can look forward to your baby reaching many milestones in the first 12 months like crawling, babbling, teething
and grasping. If your baby can reach one milestone sooner, she may get another one later since her body will be busy
in perfecting one skill. Keeping all these variations in mind, learn what is normal and what to expect each month of
your babies first year. Here is an infographic that acquaints you with such information.
