Your 37-Week-Old Baby: Development and Milestones
Wow, can you believe your little one is already 37 weeks old? It feels like just yesterday you were bringing them home!
Your Baby is Learning to Have Fun with You
Time is really flying, and before you know it, your baby will be off to kindergarten, then college—yikes, let’s not get ahead of ourselves! It seems your little munchkin has mastered the art of causing a bit of chaos, otherwise known as cause and effect. You might find yourself picking up that sippy cup for the umpteenth time while they giggle from their high chair. It’s like they’ve realized they’re the ruler of the house and you’re just the loyal subject. But hey, their cuteness makes it all worth it, right?
Milestones and Sleep Patterns at 37 Weeks
At this age, your baby should be snoozing around 13-14 hours a day and, if they’re feeling generous, still taking two naps. Of course, every baby is different; some might think sleep is overrated. If your little one is a good sleeper, you might even catch yourself whispering sweet nothings like, “You’re my favorite.”
Babies at this age love to experiment with putting smaller objects into larger ones using their newfound pincer grip. They can get quite frustrated if things don’t fit as they expect, but it’s all part of their exploration of the world. Luckily, they are easily distracted, especially by your stuff—keys, phone, remote control, or maybe even your sanity!
So, soak in these moments! Your baby will soon transition into a whirlwind of toddler energy before you can even blink, so don’t hesitate to bend down a few more times to retrieve that sippy cup just to hear that adorable giggle.
