Mila is 6 months old!

I COPY PASTE THIS ARTICLE FROM BABYCENTER.COM WEBSITE, CAUSE I SOMETIMES CANT HELP BUT TO COMPARE MILA TO OTHER KIDS WHEN IT COMES TO REACHING MILESTONES, BUT I HAVE TO STOP IT AND REALIZE THAT MY BABY IS AN INDIVIDUAL AND HAS HER OWN TIME.

Comparing your baby to others


It's hard to imagine a parent who doesn't sneak a sideways glance now and then at a friend's baby or one she sees in the grocery store, checking to see how her own stacks up. When you hear about a baby who seems more advanced in one area or another, it's natural to worry — or at least wonder — whether your own child is "okay."

Not that this kind of thinking is ultimately very useful. Every baby grows and develops at her own pace. Especially around the 6-month mark, physical and speech-related milestones can vary significantly from child to child.

If you have concerns about your baby, it's a better idea to learn about the normal timeline for development than to use other babies as reference marks. Even then, milestone charts are just a general guide. Your baby may deviate from the timeline because she's temporarily focusing on one skill rather than another or because she just needs a little extra time. Take comfort in knowing that just because your baby seems to lag in one area, the chances of a developmental delay aren't very high. But trust your instincts, too — if you're still worried, call your baby's doctor.
