10 Best Activities for 9 Months Old Baby
Activities are great fun for babies. It gives them a chance to play, interact, explore and learn new things thereby developing different skills. Here is an article to tell you about some of the best activities for a 9-month-old.
What Development can you Expect from your 9 Month-Old Baby?
A 9 month-old will have the following developments:
As your little one gets to the 9-month mark, she will start crawling through the whole house. Some become such expert crawlers that they can also crawl up and down the stairs!
Apart from being expert crawlers, a 9-month-old can easily change positions. From a crawling position to the standing position (with the help and support of chairs or something to hold on to).
Your little one’s fine motor skills improve making it easy for her to pick up small toys and which shape block goes into which shape hole etc.
She can babble non-stop and even pronounce one syllable words.
She may start understanding what you are talking about and reciprocate by a cooing sound or by passing a smile.
She can sit down without any support unlike her earlier months when she would require support.
Learning Activities for your 9 Month-Old Baby
These 9-month baby activities are easy and fun. Listed below are ten 9 month-old baby development activities.
1. Dropping in the Bucket
Drop a block or a toy in the bucket. When the toy/block touches the bottom of the bucket, you can say “dhap”(for instance). Repeat the same for a few more times. Then drop another block or a toy but this time remains silent while doing so. Just see whether she tries imitating the word. Let her also drop the toys or blocks inside the bucket or empty out the bucket. This activity develops fine motor skills as well as language skills.
2. Squeak and Hide
Take a squeaky toy and squeeze it so that it makes a squeaky sound. Hide it behind your back or under the blanket or behind the cushion. Let your baby try to look for it. You can do the activity until the time she does not lose interest in it. This simple game is great for cognitive development in babies. It also helps in developing auditory skills and object permanence.
3. Ball Rolling
Roll a medium sized blow-up ball towards your baby. See whether he stops it or not. Then encourage her to roll it back. Even if she does not, applaud her. You can ask your spouse to join in. This activity develops gross motor skills, teaches about taking turns and imitating.
4. Hide-and-Seen
Place a big carton and make sure it is comfortable without anything pricky inside. You can keep a soft towel or blanket inside. Place your baby inside and duck her in. Then pretend as if you cannot find her. On seeing her, give a squeal of excitement. Allow her to explore the box. This activity strengthens visual tracking, develops gross motor skills and social skills and teaches object permanence.
5. Clapping and Singing
Babies start clapping by the time they are 9 months old. Sing some nursery rhymes and clap along. Encourage her to clap to the rhythm. This helps the toddlers develop control of their muscles and hand-eye coordination. It also helps them to learn about rhythms.
6. Water Play
Bath time activity can be a great learning experience for the baby. When you talk to your baby, it helps in the little one’s language development, your baby playing with the bubbles can help her develop hand and eye coordination, your little one having fun while squeezing the water from a sponge or splashing water is a great way to develop her social-emotional skills etc. It is a time when apart from touch, a baby’s other senses also get activated.
7. Strolling on a Stroller
This is one of the best outdoor activities for a 9-month-old. Take your baby for strolls. It can be a stroll at the park, a stroll to the nearest supermarket to fetch groceries or just along the road. Let her watch people walking by, children playing, dogs barking etc. Let her just explore the play equipment in a park. You can also sit on a swing or slide down a slide with your baby in the lap. These “outside” experiences will help to stimulate her multi-sensory faculties.
8. Sand Play
Now that your baby can sit all by herself, make her sit on the sand pit and allow her to play with the sand. Let her pull out the small shovel, check out the small buckets, the spades etc. It is a great activity to develop your baby’s fine mother skills. However, be cautious enough not to allow sand to get into your little one's eye.
9. Treasure Basket
In a basket or a box (the size should be such that your baby should be able to sit and see the things inside the basket/box), put a wide range of things. Some may be natural like fruits or vegetables; some may be man-made (non-toxic). The things should be of different colours, textures, shapes, and sizes. The things need not be expensive but something found in and around the house, in the garden, beach, park etc. Encourage her to pick up something, explore the basket by examining the things in it, putting them in her mouth, feeling the texture, banging them against other objects or on the floor etc. This is a great activity to stimulate the baby’s senses, and also develop the different skills like fine motor, cognitive and gross motor.
10.Reading
Toddlers may benefit from picture reading books. These books have more of pictures and less of writing. Try and modulate your voice a bit while reading it out to your baby. Children who start reading early in life (even if it is picture reading books), develop a love for reading and inculcate a habit of reading, both of which are great qualities!
Tips to Consider
Make sure she has interest in the activity. If she shows disinterest, do not force your baby to participate in it. Instead, try doing something else that she may enjoy.
Make sure that the toys or objects used in the activities are non-toxic.
Do not leave her unattended even for a second during an activity. Always be alert. A little carelessness on your part could result in (god forbid!) harming your little one. For instance, during sand play, sand may get into her eyes if you are not careful or swallow something which she should not.
In case of activities where she may have to move around, she may hurt herself by knocking herself against a wall or by falling down.
Keep her barefoot always. It helps her to get the correct posture while learning to walk. Moreover, 9-month-olds feet have higher tactile sensory processing which plays a big role in the baby’s neurological development. In case, it is too cold; then you could make her wear anti-skid socks which will spare her from skidding or falling down while moving around.
Every baby grows at its own pace. Children developing new skills need lots of practice, so each activity can be done over and over again. You need not buy fancy toys for these fun activities. All you need is a lot of patience and the zeal to help your child develop the essential skills.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome In Pregnancy
The hollow space formed by the carpal bones of the wrist below and the fascia (thin shiny envelope covering the muscle tendons) above is known as the carpal tunnel. These bones enclose the median nerve, the ulnar nerve and the flexor tendons of the forearm.
What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS)?
The median nerve of the hand is responsible for the sensory supply of the lateral half of your palm (flexor aspect), while it’s motor innervation controls most of the flexor muscles of the forearm. Conditions like inflammation, fluid retention or trauma to the arm can lead to increased pressure within the carpal tunnel. This may, in turn, compress the median nerve which can lead to sensory or motor symptoms in the hand, including tingling, numbness, pain and weakness of grip. This group of symptoms is collectively known as the carpal tunnel syndrome.
What Causes Carpal Tunnel Syndrome in Pregnant Women?
Pregnancy: This is a state where there is excessive fluid retention and hence resultant weight gain. Most of the fluid accumulates in the extra-vascular spaces (outside the blood vessels) like the peritoneum (abdominal free space), joint cavities or loose subcutaneous tissues. The wrist space or the carpal tunnel is one such small space where fluid accumulates easily. This space encases important structures like the median nerve, flexor tendons of the hand, ulnar nerve, etc. The median nerve gets easily compressed whenever there is compression of the space. Fluid retention is common in the second trimester of pregnancy, and hence carpal tunnel syndrome is more common in mid-pregnancy.
Inflammatory conditions: Inflammation, in general, manifests with pain, swelling, and redness. Inflammation-causing carpal tunnel syndrome can be local due to trauma or joint pathology. It may also be associated with various systemic inflammatory disorders.
The following systemic disorders can be the causes of carpal tunnel syndrome in pregnancy:
Diabetes Mellitus
It is the most common autoimmune endocrine disorder associated with weight gain and associated fluid retention which can lead to carpal tunnel syndrome as one of its local complications besides affecting the eyes and the kidney. Diabetes in a pregnant woman doubles the chances of carpal tunnel syndrome owing to the cumulative retention of fluid.
Hypothyroidism
This is also a state of reduced metabolism and hence excessive weight gain due to fluid retention.
Hypertension
Excessive blood pressure leads to leakage of fluid in the third space or out of the blood vessels. This fluid then accumulates in the loose cutaneous tissues.
Autoimmune disorders
Some disorders like, Rheumatoid arthritis, Gouty arthritis, and Systemic lupus erythematosus which cause joint swellings and effusions.
Local trauma or fractures of the bones forming the wrist joint, like Colle’s fracture, which commonly occur in postmenopausal women, can lead to local inflammation and result in carpal tunnel syndrome.
Excessive joint movement
Carpal tunnel syndrome is worsened by repeated and excessive joint movements. Constant use of the joint hampers the resolution of inflammation and hence prevents healing. Professions like sports including tennis and badminton, musicians playing guitars or pianos, fine artists, hardware tools operators, etc. are at a higher risk due to excessive joint movement at the wrist.
Sign & Symptoms
Symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome can easily be recognised by the patient herself, as the compression of median nerve causes intense pain, tingling in the region of hand supplied and numbness.
Besides pain and tingling, the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome may be broadly divided into motor and sensory symptoms for simpler understanding.
Motor symptoms
These include the inability to make a fist, hold an object in the hand, or clumsiness of the hand.
Difficulty in doing daily chores, like brushing teeth, buttoning and unbuttoning of clothes, holding a pen, etc.
Difficulty in doing fine activities, like typing, sewing, doing artwork, etc.
Sensory symptoms
Loss of sensation in the region of the palm which is supplied by the median nerve. The median nerve supplies the skin of the lateral three-fourths of the flexor aspect of palm.
Loss of skin creases and excessive susceptibility to burns and trivial traumas due to the reduced sensation.
Who is at Risk of CTS?
Women are more prone to carpal tunnel syndrome than men. Pregnancy further predisposes women for this condition. Carpal tunnel syndrome is also more commonly diagnosed in patients between their thirties and sixties.
It is also more common with certain lifestyle factors like, high-fat diet and obesity, sedentary habits, cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, jobs which require prolonged hours of immobilisation and repeated and excessive joint movements.
People suffering from chronic diseases like diabetes mellitus, hypertension, thyroid disorders and autoimmune diseases including arthritis are at increased risk for carpal tunnel syndrome.
Diagnosis of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
A clinical diagnosis can be ascertained based on a detailed history of symptoms, elaborate physical examinations, laboratory tests and nerve conduction studies or NCS.
Examination of all the joints of upper limbs including the shoulders, elbows, and wrists will determine and rule out any other cause of nerve compression at various levels in the course of the nerve. Any local swelling, redness or deformity can be observed, while pain on touching indicates tenderness. Tests for sensation over the skin of palm and motor examination including object holding test can be useful for the diagnosis.
NCS or Nerve conduction studies definitively tests carpal tunnel syndrome in pregnancy. It measures the velocity and amplitude of an electrically transmitted impulse through the nerve being tested. A delay in the conduction indicates nerve damage and hints towards carpal tunnel syndrome in the case of median nerve of hand.
A few natural remedies for carpal tunnel syndrome during pregnancy include:
Herbal therapy
Applying cabbage leaves over the affected joint is believed to reduce inflammation.
Drinking water
Adequate hydration, following a balanced diet with low uric acid is an effective sure.
Massage
Regular exercise with intermittent rest and massage of the wrist while at work helps relieve symptoms.
Yoga
Yoga can be of significant help in relieving the pain and is a good lifestyle habit.
Acupressure
Applying controlled pressure on certain spots over the palm can significantly reduce the pain and inflammation.
Treatment of Carpal Tunnel syndrome in Pregnancy
Medical treatments are mostly conservative and include the following options:
Support
Splinting of the affected wrist during night time for about three weeks.
Non Steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDS)
Analgesics like diclofenac and ibuprofen, significantly reduce the inflammation and hence relieve the pain. Diuretics: Injectable or oral diuretics reduce the fluid and swelling to provide symptomatic benefit.
Anti Convulsants
Gabapentin and Pregabalin are effective in reducing the pain.
Local Steroid Injection
Injecting a steroid reduces the inflammation and has significant benefits in cases not relieved by NSAIDs.
Hormonal injections
Local Progesterone injection.
Surgical options are considered for patients who have severe CTS disease and do not respond to medical management. Surgically releasing the transverse ligament of the wrist, has proven to be effective in up to 85% cases. The procedure has a low rate of complications and is increasingly being practised.
Contemporary therapies are also practised as an add-on or stand-alone therapy in a few cases. These include:
Yoga:
Yoga can be of significant help in relieving the pain and is a good lifestyle habit.
Acupressure
Applying controlled pressure on certain spots over the palm can significantly reduce the pain and inflammation.
Pain Relief for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome during Pregnancy
The self-help and natural remedies for carpal tunnel syndrome listed below can help relieve the pain:
Herbal therapy
Applying cabbage leaves over the affected joint is believed to reduce inflammation.
Hydration
Adequate hydration while preventing over-hydration.
A Healthy Diet
Following a balanced diet rich in Vitamin A, B complex and Vitamin C and low uric acid.
Exercise
Regular exercise with intermittent rest and massage of the wrist while at work.
Hot Compress
Application of hot compresses over the inflamed wrist area can help relieve the pain.
Sea Cord Oil
Drinking Sea cord oil is beneficial for joints and cartilages
Carpal tunnel syndrome during pregnancy can be a significantly distressing experience. Prompt recognition of symptoms, timely workup and diagnosis can help treat the condition. Initial non-pharmacological measures involve physiotherapy, yoga and lifestyle changes including diet and moderate daily exercising. This can lead to symptom reduction and general well being. Although rarely reported, wrongly diagnosed or inadequately treated carpal tunnel syndrome may over time lead to permanent neuritis damage resulting in a handicap and ultimately loss of hand function.

The Great Indian Moms Behavior During Exams In Humorous Way!!
The 'exam' is a word that gives goosebumps and makes a relaxed world into a world of turmoil. It modifies the mind and changes your cool temperament to a freaking 'Don.' The mentioned changes are not for the one who gives the exam but it's for his Mom..."The Great Indian Mom."
As soon as the exam portion and schedule were shared, all mothers spread out like bees debating over the heavy syllabus and exhibiting their mercy on poor kids. But when they confront their child, the same 'poor child' becomes a 'genius child.' Initially with pamper, then bribing gifts and if nothing works out starts with emotional theatre. After all Indian moms are super cute in this. Some of the clippings are...
Child: " Mama, I have done my studies."
Mama: "Okay, tell me the spelling of encyclopedia?"
Child: "Ancycl.......no..no ..Encyclo....wait..wait...I am thinking."
Mama gazes with big eyes 👁️. That's enough for the child to understand what next he has to do!
Mama:" When I was like you, I used to study for hours, even in the candlelight if the power went off."
Child: "Then you must have worn specs at an early age, as you say I shouldn't study in dim light."
Mama: "Beta padh le, Warna chai ki Dukan kholni page!" 😆😜
Mama: "Beta, eat this almond and drink milk. Your exams are close."
Child: "I wish you give little nutrition to my eyes too, who demands to see his favorite channel."
Mama: "Exam ho Jaye Phir TV bhi Teri and remote bhi."😛
Mama: "Why can't you remember the names of capitals??"🌎
Child: "Mama, there are so many states and capitals to remember." 😮
Mama: "Jara batana...Motu Patlu( Cartoon) ke city ka kya Naam hai???"
Child: "FurFurinagar."
Mama: "Well done!" 😂
Mama: "All your friends are studying hard for exams."
Child: "But Rohan said now that he has reached the final level in the video game."
Mama: "Toh kya sabki moms group par jhoot bol rahi hai."
Child: "Acha, Padhta hoon!" 🤩
Mama after exams: "How was your paper?"
Child: "Mama, it was great!"😘
Mama: "Wow! What's the question asked??"
Child: "Mama, I forgot but I remember the paper had 10 questions."😜
Have we ever guessed why Indian moms are so serious about kids' exams?? Because they have so much dedication to the child's progress that their success becomes hers. They give preference to the child's progress more than hers. Many women leave their careers so that the child gets the right attention. Isn't it a selfless devotion?
Love to all crazy yet sweet moms!!
Dear Reader,
Hope I am thriving with some smile on your face 😍. I am sure after reading this line certainly you are blushing☺️. If so, please acknowledge 🥰
