My 8 month old sits, crawls, tries to stand with support. She smiles, laughs and plays. She likes to look into mirror and shadows. She signals to be picked up and shakes head when she is done with food. She makes aa sound randomly while playing alone. she seems to be responding to her name many a times.
Concerns
1. Since 5.5 months she shivers while feeding. Earlier it was just head which I showed to pediatric who said this is normal and probably sleep myoclonus. Of late, her body also is shivering which again one pediatric said is normal during half asleep.
2. Last week she started bending head down touching chin to chest and occassionally pouting and lifting one hand up. She did multiple times even while playing. This is now reduced to few times a day.
3. She plays peek a boo sometimes while other times she keenly observes or is not interested
4. She makes aa sound and screams. In between we could hear occassionally aa boo or hmm, hae, oo but then she got sepsis. She recovered but we only hear aa sound now. She is not babbling yet
I am anxious thinking these things are related and if there is some issue. Please suggest.

A. Hi Mom, I can understand your concern. There is nothing to worry about that.
If your baby isn't babbling at all by the time she is one year old, you may consult with your child doctor regarding the same. Thank you and have a good day.
