Real Pediatrician's Guide to Your 1-Year Old - Milestones, Sleeping, Walking, and More!

Welcome back and congratulations on making it through a whole year of your baby’s life! At 12 months/one year old, your little one is probably moving around a lot (crawling, pulling up, maybe even walking!), babbling a lot, and developing his or her own strong opinions. This is where your little baby starts transforming into an adorable toddler, meaning lots of movement, exploration, and big feelings. As a board-certified pediatrician and obgyn couple with three kids of our own, we've been there. In today’s guide, we’re breaking down everything you need to know about navigating this milestone moment with your baby. From supporting their development through interactive play and testing out new cups, we’ve got you covered with evidence-based advice and practical parenting tips.
