Month 6 - 9
There are two very distinct strands to your six-to-nine month old's personality. On one hand, she's an explorer, equipped with most of the skills she needs to investigate her surroundings. On the other, she's a timid soul who clings to the people she knows and loves, and often shies away from strangers.
{Yep.. Zahra does this... keen to explore everything that she can see.. all the while clinging to Mama}
With her better powers of memory she's getting to know the difference between things that are familiar and safe, and those that are new and un-tested. You can see just how much her memory is improving by watching her reaction to a toy that she has dropped. Up until now she would have forgotten it and moved on. By nine months, she looks in the right direction to see where the toy has gone.
{Yep.. Zahra already looking for those "toys" that she dopped or threw away}
Not bad at all....

Mover…
- At six months your baby will put her hands and feet into her mouth. She has learnt she can control her body{Checked}
- At seven months she may sit unaided, using her arms to balance her {Checked}
- At eight to nine months she can sit and play with a toy but may still lose balance if she turns around {Checked}
- At seven to nine months she may start to crawl properly. At first, her arms tend to do most of the work as they're still stronger than her legs, so she may go backwards or in circles. She may also bottom shuffle. {Checked.. Hahah.. now I know what her "tonggeng" act is called.."bottum shuffle"}
… and shaker
- At seven to nine months your baby finally masters the art of grasping things with her thumb and forefinger {Checked}
- At eight months she may show a left or right-hand preference {Not so sure about this}
- At nine months she can hold a mug with both hands and may try to grasp a feeding spoon. {Checked}
