Detailed explanation of baby's 5-month development indicators

Lower extremities: Your child can flex and straighten his legs voluntarily, and when he is placed on his feet to stay upright, he will push down and straighten his legs.

Small movements: Can use one hand to reach the toy he wants and can grab the toy, but the accuracy is not enough and he needs to repeat an action several times.

Big movement: Sit with your back straight. When I wake up, I always want to turn over. After a period of time, I can occasionally turn from lying on my back to lying on my side all at once.

Movement: When an adult helps the baby stand up, when the baby is lying prone on the bed, the baby wants to crawl forward, but he cannot raise his abdomen by stretching his hands, so crawling is limited to a certain extent. If he is placed on his back in bed, he can easily go into the prone position.

Vision: Can distinguish the voices of family members from those of strangers.

Hearing: Can distinguish the voices of family members from strangers.

Language: Can produce consonants.

Social: Can recognize familiar and unfamiliar adults; shows expectation, waves, raises arms to be held, and when being held, lies tightly on the person's body; can learn to be funny and make noises to interrupt adults' conversations; will stop crying when talking to him; resists people who want to take his toys away.

Cognition: Recognize people and objects, such as being able to recognize strangers and avoid them.

Independence: Repeating an action, such as often deliberately throwing things on the ground, picking them up and throwing them again. Use emoticons to express your thoughts.
