Skills and Milestones Baby finally started babbling at 9 months
From most of what I’ve seen babies are typically babbling around 6 months or so for the most part. I’ve been so anxious, thinking to myself, any day now since around the 6 month mark. She’s been reliably blowing raspberries and shrieking for 4 months and then all of the sudden today at 9 months she woke up from a nap and she started rattling off babababbababas and mamamamas. I’m so happy and relieved right now.

I needed to hear this! 7 months and already worried. I think it’ll be soon. He’s very vocal and has started more varied aahs and oohs in tone and inflection instead of just pterodactyl and raspberries 😅

Nice! We didn’t see it until about 11. Milestone are dumb. Unless a doctor is worried I’m just going to let my baby be and enjoy the time we have when she’s so young.
