Introduction to Relevance of Milestones I can't wait for that first smile Before you had a baby, you probably
never gave much thought to the most basic functions that adults take for
granted. You cannot remember a time when you could not sit, stand, walk
or speak. Now you have a newborn baby in your hands and you just do not
know what to expect. This tiny creature is like a blank slate and parents

Parents are constantly fascinated and often delighted and surprised as
they watch their baby grow up. From the time they are born, babies are

skills. Ability is inherent, but a child's immediate environment will determine
how the ability develops and grows. Development is an ongoing process from
birth to about 18 years i.e. until physical maturity.
