Your Baby this Week

By Priyadarshika Ingle | Updated: 20/11/2020

Each child has a unique temperament. Some are peaceful and friendly, while others are more sensitive. The one thing all children have in common is that they communicate with you through crying. At some point in the beginning of the month, you’ll begin to hear a different kind of sound. It is the time when most of the children find their voices. When your child is calm and attentive, you can notice a “ooh” or “aah” sound when he sees you or hears you coming. Sucking is a natural instinct and many babies will continue to have a strong need to suck their thumbs after birth, even after a feeding. Using a pacifier is really up to you. Some folks swear by them, and find them a useful way to calm a fussy baby and lull him to sleep.
