Hello everyone. As soon as we become parents, we pay close attention to the stages of our babies’ development. We celebrate when our babies turn over, suck their thumbs, smile, babble, and then cruise, crawl, walk, talk and all the rest. Doctors advise that we parents schedule frequent check-ups to make sure our babies are developing on track. Yet for we parents, these doctors appointments don’t take the anxiety out of the equation since they don’t happen as often as we would like. Meanwhile, 1 out of every 6 children faces developmental problems, meaning that all the stages I’ve just listed don’t always happen when expected. Early intervention to battle such challenges equals better outcomes for kids. So it behooves us parents to find a way to stay focused on our babies’ development and to ensure that our doctors remain informed, as well.
