7-month-old baby development and movements?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

A 7-month-old baby is usually in a period of accelerating movement. Most babies at this age begin to sit unsupported (for a few seconds to a minute) and can lift their chest off the ground on their hands while lying face down, and can lift one hand to reach for toys. Some babies begin crawling (backward, crawling, or classic four-limbed), while others don't crawl yet — this is normal. They can pass objects from one hand to the other and try to grasp small pieces between thumb and index finger (pre-pincer grasp). Turning to sounds and their own name, showing stranger anxiety are also common at this time. Every baby develops at their own pace; a difference of 1-2 months is common. If a developmental milestone appears to be skipped or the baby doesn't show efforts to sit or bear weight on legs, it's good to consult a pediatrician.
