Behavior and development
How does the baby develop?
Whether the baby likes to play with his mother or likes to play alone more, by this time he has begun to show more of an interest in other children. Your baby's first friends may be the most sincere. This will help them improve their communication skills and play a variety of games. If your child likes going out during the day, chances are he has a close friend.
At that time, the baby will learn a lot and very quickly, so how to know what skills he or she is good at, whether he or she is a future genius? Experts believe that this can manifest from an infant and manifest in a faster receptive ability than all children of the same age. However, with a few other children, the sign of a certain natural talent can only show when the baby has achieved outstanding achievements when he enters primary school.
The child now has more flexible control and body movement. Now your baby can play with small objects easily and build a toy tower without spilling it. Babies can also focus for a longer time, possibly up to 20 minutes if they are really interested in what they are doing.
What do you need to do to support your baby?
In order to help your children build and nurture childhood friendships, mothers:
Limit the number of children playing together: having too many children in one place can overwhelm things and even easily cause them to fight. Follow this rule: the number of babies playing together is according to their age. So if your baby is two years old, let him play in pairs.
Limit play time: especially when your baby plays with new friends, don't expect them to be able to play peacefully together for about half an hour to an hour without fighting or arguing.
Include babies of different ages in the group: two-year-olds can learn a lot from friends older or younger.
Play as little as possible with toys. Have babies play outdoors or play with simple objects instead of giving them a box of toys. This is how mothers encourage babies to interact more with each other instead of giving them toys, which then leads to fighting.
Use the word "you" when talking about your child's friends or other babies.
Health and safety
What should mom discuss with the doctor?
At 28 months of age, mothers can see their babies masturbate for the first time, which means they begin to fiddle with their genitals. Don't panic! It is a very normal thing, this action usually does not cause any negative health effects or will turn the mother's child into a sex addict in the future. The act of masturbation in children does not mean sex as in adults because the children do not know about sex. Children do this because of the comfort they bring. Remember that discovering your own body is an integral part of growing up.
However, if your baby does this too much, it's another problem. This could be a sign of anxiety, feeling heavy or feeling inadequate at home. If your child falls into this category, please consult your physician.
Mother should know more?
The best way to take care of and help your baby develop comprehensively is to inform the doctor about the child's development, body temperature and behavior.
Mother's concern
What do you need to care about?
Mothers can show them TV and watch for less than 2 hours a day. This will not harm your baby. However, remember that watching too much TV when you are too young can lead to language delays, obesity and attention-related ailments.
Watching and caring for your baby 24/7 is extremely tiring. However, children aged 1 to 2 are especially susceptible to accidents such as drowning, electric shock or swallowing foreign chemicals. So always focus on observing the baby, especially when the mother is prone to nervous stress like in the morning when preparing to leave the house, after dinner, at parties, when traveling, when she has guests coming home or when mom is late for an appointment. These are the times when moms least pay attention to the baby.
