One of my friends had the due date for her first changed multiple times. I think it ended up at least 1 1/2-2 months earlier than going by lmp and baby was full term in development.
My 14 month old boy was a preemie by 1 month. He is not walking yet and only babbles mama and dada. Also, when he gets excited, he bites the back of his hand very hard and throws his head forward. Although we can stop him from doing this if we intervene right away, it looks weird! Are these biting episodes and lack of walking and talking a sign of something wrong?

6 months is usually an age where your son would be seen by his pediatrician. You should bring up your concerns at the pediatric visit so that his doctor can evaluate him for any signs of developmental delay. Babies can have a range of development that can still be within the normal range, but your pediatrician will have a better idea of how your son is doing after a complete physical examination.
what month do the baby move up in your tummy like I can only feel the baby Way at da bottom I will be 15weeks tomorrow
It's definitely better to go by weeks. If people ask just politely tell them weeks is more accurate and how many weeks you are.
I have an 18 month old who has been diagnosed as failure to thrive. He is approximately 26 inches and weighs 23 pounds. He has been in the 5th percintile on the weight chart since birth- he was 5lbs, 2oz. He eats a lot. Some days, he will eat all day. I ensure that he gets 3 vegetable and fruit servings. I give him beans and eggs for protein, because he is not a big meat eater. He seems to be on schedule as far as developing.
I am "about" 7 weeks pregnant. If you go by the chart, I am 7 weeks 3 days. However, the chart does not know anything except how to be a chart. I, on the other hand, know WHEN I ovulated (it is always associated with ovulation pain) and therefore know I am not as pregnant as the chart thinks I am! I think I am about 7.1 or 7.2 weeks. Anyway...
Usually the 5th week you will see the gestational sac but maybe no fetal pole. By week 6-7 you should see the fetal pole and if you're lucky a heartbeat. By week 8 you should get a heartbeat. So if you are only 5 weeks it sounds like your development is very good seeing both a fetal pole and hb. Did he mention what the heartrate was?? I am not sure what the "likely" fetal pole means because if there is a heartbeat then there is definitely a fetal pole there!!
My daughter, will be 2 in a week and I am worried about here development. Initially she was great.. walked @ 11 months could tell body parts i.e. nose, mouth, ears etc. now she only sometime responds to her name.. only has about 20/30 words (cannot use 2 together mind) When I try to say a word she will look @ my mouth and try to copy me.. She sometimes tip toes around the house (not often)..she will laugh for no apparent reason. When she is with other kids...
I can tell you, From experience that a baby's heart is fully developed by week 18, which is why doctors do fetal echos between 18-24 weeks, it's the soonest they can visualize the heart without the bones getting in the way or "shadowing" it, and also the latest for them to detect holes and other issues.
There are many cases when a baby has a hole or two early on and as the baby grows and the heart continues to grow the holes close or get smaller on their own.
Ok ladies I don't know about y'all but I am so tired of seeing the question how if I this many weeks than how many months am I? It is basic math that you learn in elementary school. There are 4 weeks in a month and you are pregnant for 40 weeks that means 10 months. All you have to do is divide the number of weeks by 4 and you will get how many months your are. Sorry if it sounds rude but I see that question at least once a day.
At this point, I would recommend that you be seen by a pediatric cardiologist who specializes in fetal cardiology and have a fetal echocardiogram. That way, you can be assured of the complete diagnosis. With this, not only is the VSD evaluated, but also any other potential associated defects can be found.
