Understanding Behavioural Cues at 6 Months

Understanding Behavioural Cues at 6 Months

By the time your baby reaches six months, they’ve developed a whole new set of ways to communicate — even if they don’t have words yet! This stage is all about picking up on behavioural cues that can help you meet their needs faster and keep them content.

Common Cues to Look Out For:

  • Rubbing eyes & yawning: Classic signs of tiredness — time to wind down for a nap.

  • Turning head away or fussing during feeds: They might be full or need a little break.

  • Reaching arms out: An invitation for cuddles or a change of scenery.

  • Excited kicks or squeals: They’re loving the interaction — keep talking and smiling back!

Why it matters for nappy changes:
Recognising cues isn’t just about feeding and sleep — it can help with nappy time too. If your little one starts wriggling more than usual, they might be uncomfortable and need a quick change. With Awesome One nappies and pull-up nappy pants, you can make changes fast and fuss-free, so they can get right back to exploring their world.
