Not Rolling Over...
Hey Ladies,
I know most of your little ones are probably all rolling over happily by now but my DS is not! He happily gets himself onto his side but doesn't push himself any more than that. Had a look at some 'milestone' sites and they say it's not a worry until they're 7 months + but to be honest I'm sure my DD at 19 weeks was doing it by now. Sure I am being silly- he's very alert, smiley and giggly, he is holding toys and chewing them and is def progressing his motor neurone skills but wondered is anyone else in the same boat? I do wonder if its our house that hinders him a bit, we have wood floor throughout downstairs so if hes down with me he tends to be either being held or in his bouncy chair- I am trying to spend more time upstairs where its carpeted and he can have a kick about but he is quite content then just to chat away and coo at me!!
Sure hes just being lazy... definitely going to blame his daddy for that one! X

not particuarly worried about it, she gets fustraited with herself because she wants to do more
shes a very chatty, bubbly and smiles loads so just following her lead and she'll do it when shes ready i guess...

My DD didn't roll until she was 8 months (having tried for ages she finally cracked it!)
and Finley rolled at 16 weeks and won't stop rolling now, totally different!
enjoy them while they are still!!!! xxxx
When I mentioned it to my Mum she said all babies are different and develop differently. Some babies will never crawl for instance whereas others will be so good at crawling they don't bother walking for ages etc so I am going to try and bear that in mind when I think other babies are ahead etc.
I bear it in mind every time MIL says anything like 'all of mine slept through by 3 months'
