For feeding now, too, will take much longer, because one milk is not enough for a baby. First, my mother will spend a long time wandering around the stove to cook something for her pet, and then try to persuade him to eat this culinary masterpiece for as long. I'll have to master the skill of improvisation, so that I can play in the airplanes and "ku-ku" imperceptibly to feed him the whole portion. Three or four such feeding, and do not notice how the day rushed.
No doubt, children like to pokapriznichat, but wise pediatricians constantly remind the suspicious moms that the strength of the child "to stuff" food is not needed. He does not want - that means he is not hungry, but as hungry - he will eat everything, and he will ask for more supplements. And do not forget: the child needs to get used to the new food. It takes about a week. Therefore, enter a new dish gradually, starting with one or two spoons.
As soon as the baby begins to crawl, the days fly by faster. When the kid realizes that now he does not depend on his mother, that he can decide for himself where to crawl and what to touch, you will see a completely different child. Independent and active. He will discover the world around for himself. And not only the world, but also lockers, boxes, boxes and jars. He touches, pulls and tastes everything he can reach.
And this is normal in terms of child development after 6 months. The kid should not only explore each subject, but also understand what it is. He must know what can be done with this object, what it can be interesting for. He watches how these objects are used by adults, which feelings are felt at the same time, and starts imitating them.
Physiologists noted that by the age of seven to nine months the weight of the child's brain is doubled. This means that every day you live brings a lot of new and useful information to the crumb. Remember how he was in a month, and you will understand what a colossal jump in development your kid has made. In the eighth month, the child shows affection for a close adult, most often to her mother, because she spends the most time with him. He is ready to spend every second of his life with her. If earlier you could easily leave him to your nanny or grandmother and go about your business, then now prepare for hysterics and tearful partings at the door.
Do not feel sorry for emotions
Toddlers in general are very emotionally sensitive, and during this period they also begin to respond to assessments in their address. This before the baby did not understand that you are scolding him - now in phrases and in the tone that they are told, he will understand that his mother is unhappy with them. And in return you will see on his face a whole range of experiences. And praise - and it will blossom. Therefore, smile more often and praise your baby. And if there is something to scold, remember that before you a small developing personality. Do not rush to throw insulting "You're bad!" Or something more pohleshche, if he messed up. So you evaluate the personality, and not the act that he committed. Therefore, the phrase "So do not, this is bad!" Will be psychologically more correct. It's important even in what tone you say it. And do not forget to explain why it can not be done and how to do it right.
As soon as the crumb crawls, he will have to explain some rules of behavior. What can I touch, what can not, and why. Immediately set clear boundaries for what is permissible. For example, if you said that you should not touch the stove or the trash can in any case, do not be lazy every time the baby encroaches on them, remind them about it. This process is very important in the upbringing of your crumbs! But, educating, do not forget to treat the child with respect, love and patience!
Remember that, according to grandfather Freud, all psychological complexes come from childhood. By the way, the first year and a half of his life he christened the oral development stage of the child, because the main organ of the baby's senses in these months of life is the mouth. The child not only can eat, but also is able to know the surrounding world, experiencing many pleasant sensations. During this stage, certain personality traits are formed. And how exactly they will manifest in the future depends on whether this stage of development has proceeded successfully.
Worst of all, if during this period my mother is too strict, ignores needs, or vice versa, surrounds with excessive care, trying to foresee any desire. During this period, the child is still unable to separate himself from his mother, so these patterns of behavior impose their own imprint on him. As a result, the child can develop a sense of dependence, self-doubt. Subsequently, he will demand from the surrounding "maternal" attitude, to feel an acute need for support and approval.
Develop for the company
Note that the baby after 6 months of little to be just next to her mother, few of her affectionate words and embraces. He will certainly touch and study everything he can reach: nose, eyes, tongue, earrings, buttons, beads. He is interested in watching how an adult plays with a toy, how the facial expressions on his face change. This means that emotional contact goes to a higher level - "cooperation." Now the child develops in conjunction with the adult, trying to imitate him. For this match, the game in the hands, hide and seek, and "ku-ku."
Very many give the child simple domestic situations. Whether you went to wash, eat, shop, or cleaned up, tell the crumb of all your intentions, actions, name the items you take. "Now we will wash. Let's turn on the water. And where is our brush? We'll clean our little teeth with it. Now the teeth are clean. " And be sure to praise your baby for specific actions: for what he ate, he collected the pyramid. So the kid receives lessons of orientation to the emotional behavior of the mother and her attitude to this or that situation.
For the development of speech with the child you need to constantly talk. He must hear speech, and clear and legible. It is very useful to imitate the babble of a child. He utters a sound, you repeat it. At the same time, he sees how your lips and tongue move, and hears this sound in the correct performance. If there is a roll-call between you, try to pronounce a new sound for a crumb. And he will try to repeat it. The desire to imitate is used in everything. Put the balls out of the box, roll them, gather them back. Or collect the pyramid, and then disassemble. In our opinion, these actions are primitive, but for him these are the first independent manipulations with objects.
