Question
What are the development indicators for a 4-month-old baby?
Answer
At four months, a baby’s independent movement skills are further enhanced. If you entice the baby with toys, they can wriggle their buttocks to crawl a short distance, successfully retrieve the toy, and even transfer a toy from one hand to the other to reach for more. Moreover, this month is when you can start introducing solid foods. The purpose of solid foods is not only to meet nutritional needs but also to help the baby learn to eat and gradually adapt to foods other than breast milk.
