Your baby at 15 months
Full toddler energy. Words are arriving, opinions are firm, and every drawer is a research project.
Development this month
Milestones show up across four areas — and they arrive in any order, at her own pace.
What you might notice
- Walks well and starts to climb
- Says several words; understands many more
- Points to show you things (not just to ask)
- Often moves toward a single afternoon nap
Sleep around this age
Sleep is the question new parents ask most — so here's the typical shape of it, gently. Some days won't match, and that's normal.
The 2-to-1 nap transition happens across these months. Here's the one-nap day it lands on.
Ranges based on AAP, Polly Moore, and pediatric well-baby guidance. In the app, BabyBloomy predicts her next window from her own pattern — and never pings you between 10pm and 7am.
Feeding
Toward family meals and a cup. Appetite swings day to day — totally typical as growth slows from the first-year sprint.
Play & connection
Play is how she learns — and the easiest logging you'll do. A few ideas for right now:
- Push toys and safe things to climb
- A shape sorter and big crayons to scribble
- Pretend play — feed a doll, 'talk' on a phone
- Simple instructions as a game ('bring me the ball')
Moments worth keeping this month
The first years disappear fast. A two-tap log now becomes a page later.
- Her growing word list
- A determined climbing moment
- The one nap transition day
You might be wondering
Anywhere from a few to dozens by 15 months is typical, and comprehension matters more than count. Keep talking and reading together.
Big feelings in a small body with few words. Naming the feeling calmly helps more than fixing it.
