10 Surprising Baby Milestones to Look Forward to (And How to Enjoy Every Moment!)
Hey gorgeous, it's time to exchange spit-up rags for some glam and grins because, spoiler alert: being a mom doesn’t mean leaving your personality at the nursery door. You're about six to twelve months postpartum now, and while you're juggling diapers like they're going out of style, your little one is about to turn your home into a circus.
Yes, these are the magical months where every day is a journey with about as much coordination as you at 2 a.m. They’re moving, they’re grooving, and they’re teething—your baby is ready to hit some surprising milestones, and honey, you're in for a rollercoaster of cuteness.
1. The First Attempt to Crawl: Nature's Little Plumber
