Growth

  • Your baby boy is nearly 2 months old. Throughout the weeks, he may have undergone bursts in growth in terms of length and weight. Perhaps the most noticeable is his appearance: your 8-week-old baby no longer looks wrinkled, and his cheeks look much chubbier.

Development

  • Your 8-week-old baby may start to open his hands more frequently.

  • He might also be more interested in his surroundings. Notice how he likes to stare at people with glasses or smile at random strangers? If he hasn’t smiled, don’t worry; some may have to wait until week 12.

Some tips

  • Your 8-week-old baby should be getting his 1st dose of several vaccines, namely RV1 and RV5 (for rotavirus), DTaP (for diphtheria, tetanus, and whooping cough), Hib (for Haemophilus influenzae), PCV13 (for pneumococcal disease), and IPV (for polio). At this stage, he should also be getting his 2nd dose for Hepatitis B (its 1st dose is given at birth).

  • If you’re breastfeeding, see to it that your baby’s lips form a tight seal around your nipple and areola to prevent him from swallowing excess air, which can make him uncomfortable.

  • If you feed him with infant formula, position the bottle at a 45-degree angle to prevent air from entering the nipple.

  • After feeding your baby, keep him positioned at a 45-degree angle or higher to prevent reflux.
