Your baby’s needs

you have decided to bottle feed your baby

Your baby is discovering their emotions from birth.

By 2 months, he can lift his head when on his tummy and hold his head up when held at his shoulder.

Your baby lifts his head up when lying on his tummy. His hands can grasp a small rattle, and he has started laughing.

At six months he puts his hand in his mouth.

At this stage, baby’s development is on ‘fast-forward’. It’s an ideal time for sitting up and looking around. So, what’s the most interesting thing for baby right now? Baby’s mouth! It’s a great exploring tool – and little fingers fit in there so well.

Baby is growing and getting excited about, well, just about everything. Especially playtime and all the things hands can touch. Hands are so fascinating! He reaches out for things, although he often overshoots the mark.

Birth weight depends on several factors, including the mother’s nutritional status and genetic disposition. The average weight for a newborn is around 3,3 kg.

Your baby will smile deliberately, especially for his parents. He can hold his head up momentarily, and focus on and follow moving objects.

He starts to roll over from his tummy onto his back.
