Your baby might reach some developmental milestones ahead of schedule and lag behind a bit on others. This is normal. It's a good idea, however, to be aware of the signs or symptoms of a problem.
Consult your baby's doctor if you're concerned about your baby's development or your baby:
~Doesn't crawl or consistently drags one side of the body while crawling
~Can't stand with help
~Doesn't use gestures, such as waving or shaking the head
~Doesn't babble or attempt words such as "mama" or "dada"
~Doesn't search for objects that are hidden while he or she watches
~Doesn't point to objects or pictures
Next Steps
Take a Pediatricians opinion, trust your instincts. The earlier a problem is detected, the earlier it can be treated.
