1 5-month-old baby's physical growth and development indicators
When the baby is 5 months old, the baby's weight growth rate begins to decline. This is a regular process, and parents must be clear about it.
Weight and height development index
The male baby weighs 6.3-8.2kg, the length is 63.2-68.6cm, and the female baby weighs 5.8-7.5kg, and the length is 6 1.5-66.7cm? The average head circumference of boys is about 43.0 cm, and the normal range is 40.6-45.4.
The average head circumference of a baby girl is about 42. 1 cm, and the normal range is 39.7-44.5. Since this month, the growth rate of head circumference has also slowed down, with an average monthly growth rate of 1.0 cm. The fontanel development index may shrink this month, but it may not change.
Second, five-month-old baby's physical skills development indicators
Shake your body with music: this month's baby will actively listen to music and shake his body with the melody of music. Although it is not completely consistent with the melody, it is already very rhythmic.
I want to touch everything I see: after 4 months, the coordination ability of vision and touch has developed. When you see something, you will actively and consciously touch it and explore the outside world through touch. Mom, don't miss this opportunity. What the baby sees and what the baby can touch should be touched as much as possible to establish the connection and coordination between vision and touch.
Eye-hand coordination is more coordinated: this month, the baby's hand-eye movements have been more coordinated, and it will be enough for toys and ringing small bells. The baby chews the toy in his mouth. Don't stop it. Hands-on ability is further enhanced: the baby's ability to use his hands is further enhanced, and he can exercise to let his baby drink water or eat milk with his own bottle.
Reach out and let your mother hug you: this is something that makes your mother very happy. Dad might as well give it a try, make a gesture of holding the baby, and see if the baby will give his little hand to dad for him to hold.
Language development indicators of three or five-month-old infants
After 4 months, the baby entered the continuous syllable stage. The mother can clearly feel that Ba-Ba's pronunciation is improving, especially when she is happy. She can make sounds such as "ba", "da da" and "mou-mou", but there is no specific direction yet. She's talking to herself and talking nonsense. If the baby inadvertently sends out the syllable "mom", it is necessary to kiss the baby immediately and praise "the baby can call mom, and mom is really happy". Although the baby hasn't realized that his voice is calling for his mother, as the mother constantly strengthens "mother" and keeps telling the baby that "mother is going to breast-feed you" and "mother is going to bathe you", the baby will combine the voice of "mother" with the person of mother and consciously call for her. It takes a long time, but that's how babies learn languages.
Visual development index of four or five-month-old infants
Now they can distinguish red, blue and yellow. Don't be surprised if children like red or blue. These colors seem to be the favorite colors for children of this age. At this time, the child's field of vision can reach several meters away and will continue to expand. His eyes can move up and down, left and right, pay attention to some small things, such as snacks on the table; When he sees his mother, his eyes will follow her.
Cognitive status of 5-month-old infants
Now, with the strengthening of children's memory and attention, you will notice some signs: that he is not only receiving some information, but also applying it to daily life. At this stage, he can understand an important concept-causality. When he kicks the mattress, he may feel the crib shaking, or when he hits or rings the bell, he will realize that he can make a sound. Once he knows that he has made these interesting things, he will continue to try other things and observe the results. I'm interested in the face of an adult. When I hug him, I will poke your eyes and scratch your glasses with my fingers. When calling his name, you can turn your head and look in the direction of the sound. This month's baby will start to pay attention to himself in the mirror. Mom can point to the mirror and say "this is the baby" (you can say the baby's name), and say "it's mom holding the baby, and dad is standing behind".
