Infant development
Now the baby is awake every day 10 hour or so. The baby develops normally. At this time, its weight is about 1kg higher than that at birth, and its height is about 3cm higher. A fast-growing baby can grow 2 kg and 8cm.
The baby may sleep 16- 18 hours every day. Some babies can look up, and some babies can stand up, but not for too long.
From birth, a baby's eyes may keep following objects, but he can only stare at things for a short time at most. Now, he can stare at moving objects more freely.
The baby begins to recognize your face and voice, and his eyes will move with the object, so he can stare at you intently and smile at you when he is happy.
What surprises parents most is that the baby begins to "talk", and he will make various sounds to express his feelings and needs. If you talk to him, he may babble and his head will keep moving.
