Your Baby at 2 Months

Milestones is an exciting and important way to track the development of your baby. Here are some things you might see your baby doing around 2 months of age. Your baby can hold objects for a short period of time, have an increased interest in his hands and fingers, have more control with grasping, and with arm and leg movements, have better head control and begin pushing up when on her stomach. At 2 months of age, your baby's language and communication skills are developing. Your baby can look in the direction of sounds, recognize voices and respond to sounds, make gurgling and cooing sounds when she's happy and content. Every child is different. Some of these behaviors and milestones generally occur at certain ages, however, a wide range of growth and behavior for each age is normal. Remember, if you have any concerns about your child's development, check with your pediatrician.
