Infants/Newborns

The infant or newborn stage is a child's youngest stage of life, and lasts until about 12 months. Though a child is not able to speak or walk at this stage, a great amount of growth and development are taking place, as he or she adjusts to new surroundings. In this Infant/Newborns section, you will find links to information on brain and physical development, behavior, general care, breastfeeding, shaken baby syndrome and more.
