Track Your Child's Progress With These Developmental Milestones by Age

Watching your baby grow and develop is thrilling, awe-inspiring, and — let's be real — a little stressful. As a parent, you just want to do a good job raising your precious baby, but conflicting information from books and TV (plus your annoying great aunt's penchant for judgment) could leave even the most zen parents feeling a little crazed. That's why we did our research and created a no-frills list of developmental stages backed by the CDC. Use this as a road map to track the exciting changes your baby undergoes, and, as always, reach out to your trusted pediatrician if you have questions about childhood development.
