To the kid, it is interesting now absolutely everything: what is the taste of the floor, what lies in the plate, how the pack rustles and why it is not allowed to the hot battery. Try to maximally protect the surrounding space, so as not to limit the baby in his life. Remove the friction, sharp objects away, isolate hot batteries and heaters. A safe environment is the best way to develop a child.

Active teething accompanies the seventh month. But in some children, the first tooth erupts only closer to the year, and this is normal too. The lower central incisors first, and behind them the upper central incisors. After the lateral upper incisors, and then the lower lateral incisors.

The process of eruption of all 20 milk teeth is close to 2-2,5 years. Typical symptoms of teething are anxiety and moodiness of the child, increased salivation, a slight increase in temperature (not more than 38.0 C), rejection of solid food, chewing fingers, a small rash around the mouth.

Do not use dental gels containing lidocaine for anesthesia. Many large studies have shown that these gels contact the gum for a very short time, and then the child simply swallows it. This time is not enough for anesthesia, but with frequent use of dental gel, the child swallows too much of it. This can lead to seizures, severe brain damage, as well as heart problems and even child death.

In 6 months, they introduced the first lure of vegetables and porridge. In 7 months we add meat to the lure. The basis of the diet of the first year of life is to make veal. Since iron, which is contained in red meat, is most easily digested. Studies have not shown the benefits of rabbit meat over veal. That is why up to 1 year the main meat ration of the child should be beef - everything else is sometimes as a variety.

 

The active cognitive interest of the child must be maintained. If a month ago he just showed interest in food, now he is actively grabbing a spoon, which he is fed and he takes food from your (or his plate). He can have a good appetite and active food interest even in the absence of teeth. Therefore, the food should be cleaned and safe.

7 months is the age when the child begins to check the boundaries of what is allowed. Most likely, pinching you or pulling your hair by a sister's child is fun and he does it because he is curious, and not because he is naughty and harmful. The best tactic at the moment is a distraction. Telling a child that he is doing something wrong at this age is pointless. Remember that the baby's memory is short-lived.

 

At this time the child:

♦ Sits on his own.

♦ Can actively and purposefully crawl.

♦ Actively takes toys. Crawls to the toy of interest and plays it by herself.

♦ Attempts to take toys with fingers, not with the whole hand.

7 months is a time of imitation. The child repeats your actions. Show more often how to stack a pyramid, build a tower of cubes and soon he will surprise you with his skills.

 

Restless sleep is normal for seven-month-old children. Active teething (sometimes even several), impose their imprint. In addition, daytime emotions, new skills do not give rest and at night. The baby in their sleep lives them again and so sleep becomes restless. This is the normal stage of growing up.

It is very important to create a sitting. With daily repetitive actions (bathing, a book or a song, packing in a crib), the child will be easier to fall asleep.

The baby learns to play on his own. He can already do some time with toys himself without the help of an adult, shift toys, examine them, try them on the tooth.

Cardboard books help the child learn how to turn pages and get used to reading. A book-development, containing different game elements, fabrics of different structures and combining different development techniques - just a treasure for a young mother.

Most likely your child loves playing "Ku-Ku". All children love it. In addition, the game teaches him that if the mother suddenly disappeared from the field of vision, then she will immediately appear.

During the game, call toys, colors, shapes. Let the kid is not ready to repeat or remember everything, but this is an excellent basis for its further development. Turn all daily activities into a game. So at this age is formed the game and cognitive activity of the child.

 

The child reacts positively to the speech addressed to him, constantly repeating various syllables and sounds. Active speech is formed, it accumulates passive vocabulary. Conversations with adults in the presence of a child also have a positive effect on the development of his speech.
