Why Is My Baby Sneezing So Much? Understanding Newborn Congestion
Hi there! It’s me, your favorite 12-month-old influencer, I'm going to share a little bit about my typical day as a 12-month-old and a few growth milestones. Get ready to see all the cool things I do and the awesome products I use every day. Let’s dive in!
Morning Wake-Up Call
My day starts bright and early. I wake up with a stretch, a yawn, and a giggle, ready to start another amazing day. Mumma and Dadda might still be catching Z’s, but my cheerful babbling gets them up and smiling. First things first: diaper duty. Mommy uses the softest, most luxurious baby wipes – only the best for this little star!
Breakfast is next, and let me tell you, it’s an event. I sit in my highchair, ready to tackle my car-shaped feeding plate. It’s a mealtime must-have, with separate sections for all my favorite foods. Today’s menu? Banana bites and scrambled eggs. Yummy and nutritious!
Playtime Fun
After breakfast, it's playtime! I crawl over to my toy basket and pull out my favourite soft toy, Mr. Monkey. It's so cuddly and soft. We play on the floor, and I like to use my stacking toys and knock them over again. I'm getting pretty good at this!
From building little structures with pieces of toys, jumping over small hurdles in the backyard, or having fun during playtime with my parents, there is always something interesting for me like my wooden rabbit baby rattle & wooden car toy. My cognitive development has been phenomenal since birth, in particular my conducting abilities. It all starts with my ability to distinguish people or simple words that I have been instructed to obey.
Mommy says I'm reaching lots of infant milestones now. I’m also working on my walking skills. I hold onto the furniture and take wobbly steps, with Mommy cheering me on. Sometimes, we hold hands and walk around the house together – I feel like such a big kid!
Mid-Morning Nap
All that playing makes me sleepy, that reminds me, it's time for my morning nap. Mommy reads me a story, and then I snuggle up with Mr. Monkey in my crib. Naptime is important because it helps me grow and gives me energy for the rest of the day.
Lunchtime Delights
When I wake up, it's lunchtime. Mommy gives me a warm bath before lunch. Mommy uses the best baby body wash – it smells so nice and leaves my skin super soft. I love splashing and playing with my bath toys. My rubber ducky is my favourite.
After my bath, Mommy wraps me up in a big, fluffy towel and dries me off. Then, she applies baby body lotion on me to keep my skin soft. I love the feeling of being all clean and cosy. Today, I am wearing a very cute bodysuit.
For lunch, I sit in my highchair again, and today, I have some steamed vegetables, sweet potato, and a little bit of yoghurt. I'm getting better at using my spoon, but sometimes my hands are faster! I get food all over my face, and we both giggle.
Afternoon Adventures
As the morning turns to midday, I am still energetic, ready to jump and crawl around the house. Mommy reads me more stories, and I like to turn the pages. I can even point to some pictures when Mommy asks, "Where's the dog?" I love the stories with animals in them.
Then, it's time for another nap. I'm usually pretty tired by now, so I fall asleep quickly. When I wake up, we sometimes have visitors. Grandma and Grandpa come over, and they always bring me a new toy or book. I love spending time with them.
Dinner and Bedtime
Dinner time is another chance for me to practice eating different foods. Tonight, I have some dal khichdi. After dinner, we have a bit more playtime before it's time to get ready for bed.
Mommy changes me into my favorite blanket and gives me my bedtime bottle. We sit in the rocking chair, and she sings me a lullaby. I start to feel very sleepy. Mommy puts me in my crib with Mr. Monkey, and I snuggle up, ready for a good night's sleep.
Before going to bed, I follow my nighttime routine as my doctor suggested my newborn sleeping hours, because why not? I am no less than a celebrity! Every day is a new adventure, and I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings. Being a 12-month-old is exciting, and I'm learning so much every day.
