You'll probably be tired and always thinking about how much you need to do around the house, or how you will manage if you are going back to a job outside the home. These are just normal reactions that parents have during the first few weeks after baby's birth. It takes a while for life to settle into a routine that everyone in the family can live with. We hope that this guide will help you on your journey through the different stages of parenting. The information in this guide shows an average pattern of growth.
Children grow at different speeds, some slower and some faster than the rates shown.
For example, some may walk at nine months and some may walk at fifteen months. If you have questions about how your baby is doing, please call your doctor or clinic.
