There are many new parents who, due to their lack of parenting experience and knowledge, often confuse their baby's age and make mistakes about their baby's age. Recently, some new parents have asked if their baby is one year old at 12 months old? In order to help novice parents have a better understanding of their baby's age, let's take a look together.
Generally speaking, the first month of a baby's life is called the neonatal period. Newborns do not calculate their age, and their age is zero at this time. It is not until the baby is one month old that their age is officially calculated. Therefore, the second month of a baby's life is only one month old, and the third month of a baby's life is two months old. As time goes on, a baby who is 12 months old will be one year old, and a baby who is 18 months old will be one and a half years old.
After entering 12 months, babies begin to show comprehensive development in their abilities. At this point, babies are able to imitate some of their parents' movements and express themselves well through gestures. They can also crawl, sit, and stand well, occasionally supporting walls and tables while walking. Additionally, babies can call their parents and say some individual words.
In order to make the 12 month old baby grow more healthily, we must pay attention to the diet. Although milk powder is still the staple food, we should increase the number of complementary food for the baby, from the original two meals to three meals, and appropriately increase the amount of complementary food. We can let the baby eat some soft porridge, soft noodles, small Wonton, etc., and also give the baby eggs, bean products, spinach, cabbage, carrots, etc.
