WONDER WEEKS APP
It’s not your imagination– all babies go through a difcult period around the same age. Research has
shown that babies make 10 major, predictable, age-linked changes – or leaps – during their rst 20
months of their lives. During this time, they will learn more than in any other time. With each leap
comes a drastic change in your baby’s mental development, which affects not only his mood, but also
his health, intelligence, sleeping patterns and the “three C’s” (crying, clinging and crankiness).
