Your baby's motor skills and development are important, too. Depending on your baby's age, be prepared to answer questions like these:
- Is your baby turning toward sights or sounds?
- Is your baby smiling or cooing?
- Is your baby reaching for objects?
- Does your baby respond to and make corresponding facial expressions?
- Does your baby imitate sounds that you make?
- Can your baby support his or her head well?
- Does your baby attempt to roll over?
- Can your baby sit with support?
- Does your baby pull up into a standing position?
