10 Things You Taught Your Baby Today (Without Even Trying)

Thank you. Sometimes it's very daunting to think that you are responsable for teaching a new person about the world, so to think that just being yourself and sharing your life with them can be an important part of that is relieving!

Thank you so much. This article made me feel less like I was doing it all wrong and more like I may be getting this parenting thing down (7 months DS). Thank you for the encouragement that I am doing a good job. It made my day!

I am impressed by this article. Really, I did not suspect that such early age is a time to teach baby anything! Thank the author.

as a grand/parent i was quite amazed and awesomely reminded how awesome babies are. our grand daughter is so smart and wonderful. it has been 23 years since i had a baby. our baby is 23yrs old. it is truely a miracle.:)

I am so amazed with my daughter Zoe! she is only 10 weeks old and is already standing, cooing, smiling fron ear to ear, and laughing at mommy and daddy. She has been holding her head up since birth. I love this girl with my soul. she was not planned, but like I always say God makes no mistakes. Mommies and daddies love your babies they are truly a gift and will change your life forever. This is a congratulations to all the new and old mommies and daddies out there!

First for all the moms who ask is my baby late or should i be worried. Don't within the first year put pressure on them to learn these things. They will get it. every baby is different JJ is only 5 mo old cant stand and hates tummy time but loves be more mentally stimulated so i take pride in those things. in all do time when hes ready he'll learn those things, im not worried.

Evy finally started holding her teething ring. She just got here 4 months ago and she's already in charge of what she wants.

Every day is a new experience. My son just turned 6 weeks and he is growing so fast right before my eyes. I don't think there is anything greater then a mother's love for her child. He is a blessing and an angel, as are all children. May they all be healthy. My son has started tomake cute noises when I talk to him and smiles from the corner of his mouth like he is amused with me. It's amazing how smart they are and how fast they learn. May God Bless all our little angels.

My one year old daughter scrunches her nose when she doesn't get what she wants.

My baby is 7 months old and is crawling, but is not sitting up yet by himself, i think he can do but doesn"t want to yet, is thay normal?

My son is going to be 4 month in 2 days and he stands (with something to lean against) tries to speak, hums to himself before he falls asleep. Laughs and smile when I sing to him. He is so amazing...he's already in a walker and can kick his feet and move around. I hope I'm not putting to much strain on him but he loves it..if I don't lift him to stand he will cry until I do

I love the way my baby recognizes the cool stuff she does for the first time and enjoys celebrating it with me.

my daughter is 17 weeks old and doesnt roll over yet...is she developmentally delayed?

I put my 3 mt old twins tummy side down over a boppy and they both crawl over it . It is so so cute.

My baby girl just turned 4 months. She is smiling, gurgling, and babbles now, it's so cute!! I love watching her develop and change. =)

my son who is 10 mths, and still cries when he hears his 3 yrs old cousing laugh laud, or make loud noises or screams, is that normal? if so, what can I do to ease out their time together?

love this article!

Baby's are cute!

aww my baby is 5 months and she doesnt crawl, she laughs and trys to talk cant really understand what she is saying though

I love my baby

This made me smile today :)

my son is a blessing...

My son is 9 months old and i think that he is ready to start going to daycare. He hasn't been away from me yet and i dont want him to be scared. I also have to prepare myself for seperation anxiety.

My daughter Alanis is the most amazing lil 5 month girl. she laughs at everything, she is starting to crawl and she says dada.

I love my daughter that is why I don't let her cry :)

My daughter jocelyn alexis is amazing. Watching her learn and seeing her beautiful smile everyday brightens my world. She wasn't planned but i cannot imagine my life without her.

I just think this article is great!

My son is just about 3 months and giggles and coo to me every morning before I got to work -- its a bit of a double edge sword -- because I don't want to go to work, but it sure makes it fun to hurry up and come home after my work day is done.

my 10 months son climbed up the stairs yesterday. he climbed up fast that i don't know how to react. i was amaze and at the same time very scared that he might fall. but when he reached the top he was so happy that he made it and he keeps on giggling!

Isn't that amazing? Just this morning I handed my daughter her bottle to hold by herself and she did! Finished the whole thing by herself! It just amazes me the things she does -- and she acts like it's no big deal, like she's been doing it, like you said, since birth!

I handed my son a sippy cup for the first time today and he grabbed the handles with both hands, stuck it in his mouth and started sucking on it likes he's been doing it since birth!
