Developmental Interview

1st Interview

1. Was I born in a normal delivery? Are you a healthy baby or a sickly baby?

I was born in a normal delivery. I was not premature or anything but I was always sick. The doctor said it's because I was anaemic. Other than that you also have asthma. We always spent the night in the hospital because of it.

You started walking at around eight months. It's pretty early and I was still holding on to things. But when you turned ten months after that, I was already standing on your own. And then at 1 ½ year old, I was now running. I was always moving and you can't sit still.

4. How is your sleeping pattern? Do you always sleep on time? Are you easy to fall asleep when I was a baby?

5. How about your potty training?

I was a little bit delayed on your potty training because I was always in the hospital. We didn't train you much there.
