Fussy days, sleep changes, new skills: get general guidance for your baby's age, in language you can actually use.
What this can do: show general guidance for your baby's age. It cannot predict when your baby will be fussy. The five windows organize research and milestone guidance, and exact timing varies.
Choose a ready-made guide, a personalized map, or the three-guide kit. All five existing PDF offers are here.
The development windows organize broad age-based guidance. They do not predict when an individual baby will be fussy.

Start with the basic checks: feeding, nappy, temperature, clothing, and anything that could hurt. If the cry sounds unusual, your baby is hard to wake, or breathing looks different, get medical help. If you feel overwhelmed, put the baby on their back in a safe cot and step away for a few minutes.

Read the full constipation guideSore gums, drooling and chewing are common signs. Teething does not explain a fever of 38C / 100.4F or a baby who seems very unwell, so do not assume a new tooth is the cause.
