6 MONTHS
Your baby is starting to sit on his own. He can lift his head, chest and shoulders off the floor and is starting to look like he wants to crawl. He actively rolls around. He can move an object from one hand to the other and is even trying to feed himself. When you’re feeding him, he’ll probably start grabbing at the jar or spoon.
7 MONTHS
At month seven, your baby is busy moving his one knee ever closer to his tummy – a precursor to crawling. He can roll like a boss and can bring his foot to his mouth. He’s beginning to play with his toys more intentionally by shaking them or banging them together. He can pull toys and he’s dropping them less and less regularly. When he tries to feed himself finger foods, he succeeds more often than not. He is beginning to practise his pincer grip using his thumb and forefinger.
8 MONTHS
This is usually the time when babies begin crawling. They’ll also experiment with pulling themselves up against couches or coffee tables. By the end of this month, your baby can probably crawl forwards as well as backwards. He can open and close his hands deliberately and his pincer grip is becoming more accurate by the day.
9 MONTHS
