In the event your toddler has not reached these milestones, do not be overly anxious. This rate of development may well be normal for your child, as some children are late bloomers. Importantly, it needs to be evaluated or consulted with a doctor. Check with the doctor if your toddler seems unresponsive, doesn’t smile, makes few or no sound, doesn’t seem to hear well, is perpetually irritable, or demands constant attention. For the one year old who was born prematurely, the toddler will often lags behind others of the same chronological age. This developmental gap progressively narrows and generally disappears entirely around age two.
