See the 8 different communication milestones baby should be reaching by 9 months one. Each milestone has a clip so you can see and hear the different communication milestones for baby.
Here are the communication milestones your baby should be reaching by 9 months old:
• Uses increased variety of sounds and syllable combinations in babbling
• Looks at familiar objects and people when named
• Recognizes sound of their name
• Participates in two-way communication
• Follows some routine commands when paired with gestures
• Shows recognition of commonly used words
• Simple gestures, e.g. shaking head for “no”
• Imitates sounds
As always, all of our milestones are validated with American Academy of Pediatrics findings and reviewed by pediatric therapists.
