Communication begins in the womb.
Before Birth:
- Prenatal hearing: Around 4-5 months gestation, the fetus can hear sounds outside the womb, including speech, music, and environmental noises.
- Vocalizations: Between 16-24 weeks gestation, the fetus can make vocalizations such as hiccups and cries.
- Movement: The fetus communicates through movements, such as kicking and squirming, which can be felt by the mother.
At Birth:
- Crying: The first communication method after birth is crying, which signals hunger, discomfort, or distress.
- Eye contact: Newborns make eye contact and respond to facial expressions, which fosters attachment.
- Reflexive behaviors: Reflexive behaviors, such as the rooting reflex (turning towards a touch near the mouth), enable communication and feeding.
Early Infancy:
- Cooing: During the first few months, babies produce a variety of sounds called "cooing," which are precursors to speech.
- Babbling: Around 4-6 months, babies begin to babble, producing a wide range of consonant and vowel sounds.
- Imitation: Infants can imitate certain sounds and gestures, such as blowing bubbles or clapping hands.
Later Infancy and Toddlerhood:
- Single words: Between 9-12 months, infants start producing their first single words, typically expressing basic needs or objects.
- Two-word combinations: By 18-24 months, toddlers can combine two words to form simple sentences, such as "more juice" or "all gone."
- Complex speech: As toddlers grow, their speech becomes more complex and they acquire a larger vocabulary.
