Detailed explanation-1: -Waving is often an early sign that your little baby is inching closer to becoming a toddler: They understand social cues and have the gross motor skills to show them off! All babies move at their own pace, but many babies start showing off a “hello” or “goodbye” wave around 7 or 8 months.
Detailed explanation-2: -Babies may flap their hands or arms because they are excited or happy. Since they do not yet have the verbal skills to express their emotions, flapping is a physical way to show how they’re feeling.
Detailed explanation-3: -If your baby isn’t waving by the time they’re 12 months old, it might be time to contact your pediatrician-but only if they’re also missing other communication milestones typical for 12-month olds, Rhoades says.
Detailed explanation-4: -Babies with atypical muscle tone (very loose or very tight muscles or joints) often find it difficult to push up from their stomachs onto forearms or hands. They have to work harder than their peers, but with encouragement from parents and guidance from a therapist, they can learn to enjoy being on their tummies.
