Month 7 · 8 milestones

Note for parents

What’s happening

Your baby responds to their name reliably now, and they love social games. Peek-a-boo is becoming a hit. Babbling is getting more complex, with consonant-vowel chains like 'bababa' and 'mamama.' Sitting without support is happening or very close, and some babies start to crawl or scoot around this month. They can pass objects from one hand to the other and are fascinated by cause and effect, like dropping a spoon and watching you pick it up.

For you

That game where they drop the spoon and you pick it up? They're not trying to annoy you. They just discovered cause and effect, and you're part of the experiment. It's actually a cognitive milestone.
