Development and weight gain (10.14kg)

Today we weighed Raphael at 10.14kg (a 60g increase from last time).

Raphael has begun cruising to more difficult surfaces of different heights. He still complains about having to do it but is willing to do it if the incentive is high enough.

He has also just managed to say Mama, it is a bit garbled but he clearly pointed to his mum and made this new sound. This is the first new sound in a long time and makes his list of sound:
  • "dya-dya-dya"
  • "adaadaadaadaa"
  • "aiyaiyaiya"
  • "mama"




Mama is English and Chinese for Mum and so we are going to claim it as two new words that he has learnt. I think that he knows that am "Dada" and that his mum is "Mama" but I can't be certain about that.
