Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Around month 7, babies start to develop emotions like fear and anger. From 8-11 months, babies are more sensitive to approval/disapproval and separation anxiety is likely to peak. By 12 months, babies develop expressive language and can begin to label emotions.

Detailed explanation-2: -During this first year, your baby will form special bonds with caring adults, explore the world around them by touching, looking and engaging within safe spaces with caregivers. They will also learn more about emotions by watching you, sharing a smile and calming with your help.

Detailed explanation-3: -At 1 month of age, infants express their feelings with alert, widened eyes and a rounded mouth. The bond grows between parents and their baby during this stage. Around 2 months of age, your baby will have a “social” smile. That is a smile made with purpose as a way to engage others.

Detailed explanation-4: -While infants vary in their sensitivity, research shows that babies do, indeed, sense and react to their parents’ emotional cues. Generally speaking, they’re picking up on what you’re giving off.
