Developmental milestones for a 7-month-old baby

The developmental milestones for a 7-month-old baby include physical growth, cognitive abilities, motor skills, and language development. In terms of physical growth, the average 7-month-old baby is about 68 cm in length and weighs approximately 7.8 kg. Teething begins during this stage, and babies can sit steadily and may start to stand while holding onto objects. Regarding cognitive development, babies can distinguish between different colors, shapes, and sizes, and show a clearer understanding of their surroundings. In terms of motor skills, they are able to crawl and roll over, beginning to explore their environment through movement. For language development, babies start imitating sounds and gestures, produce simple vocalizations such as "dada" or "mama," and begin to understand basic verbal instructions.
