My baby is NOT doing __________.

[mirage86]

Not rolling, sitting or standing. I tried holding him on his legs the other day and he just looked at me like I'm crazy to have him put any weight on his noodle legs. He also has little interest in grabbing anything and I don't think he's realized anything about his hands except that they are nice to chew on.

Does not roll. Hates tummy time. Only naps in RnP.

Also hates books but doesn't have a choice due to homeschooling. She is getting better with it though.

Also wanted to say. I love this thread. We did the dreadful tummy time 3 times today because she doesn't even try to roll. Tomorrow I'll probably do it none to make up for it, because it sucked.

LO hates tummy time flat on the floor or in the crib so today I propped her on her tummy on the boppy and she actually liked it and stayed that way for 10 min. I was shocked.

Agree with heaps of these hints but also, Little P does not go to sleep 'awake but drows ever: she falls asleep when she's finished feeding. Very very rarely falls asleep from patting and rocking.

Horrible napper. She fights them and then usually naps for 15 minutes, and the longest naps come in her car seat. Try to put her down and she is not happy.

She also is only sleeping in her RnP. We need to try to transition out of it but every time she tries to nap in her pnp or crib and cries I'm more convinced to wait. We typically get such good sleep in the RnP!

teenybird lol at snart! I marvel at the ways Little P gets poop on her socks during diaper changes too.

LO is not a roller yet. She's got rocking down but it's more because she's pissed! She doesn't grab for toys, unless my necklace counts. She rarely naps without being held- but I mostly blame DH for this.

He's not doing many of the things mentioned in the brag post. It was kind of a bummer for me to read, but I reminded myself he's one of the youngest.

He smiles and coos and is a great snuggler and night sleeper. .

Same here! I always have to remind myself that J is a bit younger than a lot of the other babies on our board. I had the same sort of experience through my pregnancy. It was actually kind of nice to get a preview of what was coming up, so I try to think of it that way now too.

This for S too. She's one of the younger ones. She just started consistently smiling and cooing. She does not try to roll, she hates tummy time and will not nap in her crib but almost STTN in it.

Hates tummy time
Not even close to rolling
Head is still wobbly, I think some of that is because it's so big.

H also despises tummy time. She gets pissed when she gets herself stuck there. When we put her down for tummy time, she glares at us then buries her face in the floor/boppy like she's saying "you can't make me do this!"

My baby hates whenever she isn't being held, but then hates if we cradle her like a newborn. She needs to be up and looking around. She isn't a fan of sleep much either, night time or nap time.

J is doing this too. Sometimes I can set him in his swing and distract him with the ceiling fan so I can eat or run to the bathroom, but gets angry any other time. And if we hold him like a newborn, he starts looking for a bottle, even if he just ate.

Cole is the same. He's never liked being held like a newborn, he needs to see what is going on around him. Bottle time is really the only time I can cradle him. Glad to know my kid isn't the only one!
