His psychomotor development

Your 22-month-old child begins to coordinate well. He /she knows how to strike a ball with his foot with all his might. His language, his understanding and his capacity for reasoning are refined: he/she begins for example to understand the notion of opposites (big and small, lean and fat …). He/she also knows how to obey simple orders in two steps: “go get your pajamas” and “make a kiss to dad”, “go get your shoes and bring them to me”. He /she also knows how to set goals, for example taking his little car to the end of the road or putting his shoes alone. His successes enthuse him! But when he fails, he quickly gets angry.

My baby is typing

A baby who types, this is not abnormal! It is even a fairly common attitude, which does not mean that it should be ignored, quite the contrary. Be firm with the child, telling him that he is not allowed to bang, bite or pinch. We must succeed in channeling his overflowing emotions. Sometimes, the child types to mark his territory, because he /she needs to cling to something concrete, which the physical contact allows him. Tell him, for example, that instead of typing, he can caress.

At 22 months, my baby does not walk

It’s about walking as language, each child evolves at his own pace. Some will walk at 10 months, others at 22 months, without this presage of any development problem. Your baby may be afraid to let go or is he slightly hypotonic. If your pediatrician suspects a particular difficulty, he/ she will prescribe a report at a psychomotor and a meeting with a neurologist.

Health, weight, and height at 22 months

If your baby is a boy, at 22 months old, he measures an average of 86 cm and weighs between 11 and 12 kg.

If it is a girl, it measures on average between 84 and 85 cm and weighs about 11 kg.

At 22 months, there is no mandatory health appointment: the next important visit to the pediatrician will be in his 2 years.

Toddler’s food

Your child is asking for sweets, fried foods, chocolate, sodas? Be careful not to give in too often: ok for a few sweet or savory delights from time to time. But be sure to give him fruits and vegetables at every meal. Small sweets, it’s more! And at this age, your child needs to drink water and nothing else during the meal. To encourage him or her to taste new foods, do not hesitate to be imaginative, to vary the recipes and presentations. Eat as a family, all at the table, as often as possible, so that he understands that sharing meals is also a pleasure. Finally, remember that your child still has a small appetite: do not force him to eat too large portions.
