Growing...
Marsya Hayra: 10 Months old - Week 3
Only a few weeks shy of her first birthday, your baby's no longer a helpless infant who can't do anything without you. She still needs plenty of care and support, but her growing independence — evident in her solo standing, stooping, and squatting — is becoming apparent.
Your baby may walk while gripping your hand, and she'll hold out her arm or leg to help you dress her. At mealtimes, she may be able to grip a cup and drink from it independently (though some children may not do this for a few more months) and hand-feed herself an entire meal.
Once your baby's able to drink from a cup by himself, you may need to start ducking, because she's just as likely to toss it when she's finished as to put it down gently.
Your baby will also purposely drop objects for someone, probably you, to pick up. If you get tired of this dropping game, take away the object for a few minutes and try to distract your baby with something just as enticing, such as a fun game of peek-a-boo.
My Pregnancy: 21 Weeks
Your baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1/2 inches long — the length of a carrot. You may soon feel like he's practicing martial arts as his initial fluttering movements turn into full-fledged kicks and nudges. You may also discover a pattern to his activity as you get to know him better.
You're probably feeling pretty comfortable these days. You're not too big yet, and the usual discomforts associated with early pregnancy are, for the most part, gone. If you're feeling good, relax and enjoy it while you can — the third trimester may bring with it a new crop of complaints.
