1. Development indicators of height and weight
After a baby is born, his height and weight develop very quickly. By 9 months, the baby\’s height will generally increase to about 1.5 times that of birth, and the weight will increase to about 2.5 times of birth. Babies at this stage need to consume approximately 900 kcal per day to support their rapid growth.
2. Motor ability and hand-eye coordination
As babies continue to grow, their motor abilities will become stronger and stronger. By 9 months, most babies have learned to roll, crawl, and sit up. At this time, they may also begin to try to stand and walk, and be able to complete some simple tasks such as grabbing objects through hand-eye coordination.
3. Language and cognitive development
At 9 months old, many babies have begun to express their needs and can understand simple verbal instructions. Additionally, they may begin to take an interest in things around them and learn new things through observation and exploration.
4. Eating habits and health management
At this stage, breast milk or formula is still the main source of nutrition. Your baby can also start trying some solid foods, such as toast and cooked vegetables. In addition, parents should pay attention to providing their babies with adequate water and take them for regular physical examinations and vaccinations.
5. Sleeping habits
At 9 months, most babies need 12 to 14 hours of sleep per day, including 2 to 3 daytime naps and 1 nighttime sleep. Parents should try to maintain a fixed sleep schedule and create a comfortable, quiet sleep environment.
6. Family parent-child relationship
At this stage, the family parent-child relationship is crucial to the baby\’s development. Parents should try to interact with their children as much as possible and provide them with a safe, warm and interesting environment for their growth. At the same time, attention should also be paid to giving children appropriate free space and independence to promote their growth and development.
