This Month: Walking
Are you worried that your little one isn’t walking yet? Hold that thought! Even the healthiest toddlers may not take their first steps until they’re 18 months old, so savor these pre-walking days while you can (you’ll be keeping up with a speedy little one before you know it).
The Toddler Transformation
Welcome to toddlerhood! It’s a whirlwind of new experiences that go beyond just walking. Get ready for mealtime messes, new vocabulary (yes, “NO!” will likely be a favorite), wiggly diaper changes, and the occasional mood swing (one is the new two!). But don’t fret—there’s a lot of joy to be found too, from those adorable, sloppy kisses to your little one grooving to your favorite songs (who can resist the cuteness of a dancing baby?). As your child becomes more mobile, you might notice those adorable rolls of baby fat starting to disappear, as weight gain slows down and they start racing around the living room.
