My friends son wa born in august a week earlier than my son . She sends me vids of him here and there as do I on Snapchat.
However he is already holding rattled and toys! And he’s only 2 months!
Mine isn’t able to hold anything for long yet! And he can’t bring it to his mouth to explore either!
Is mine slow or delayed??
How do I help him

My lo is almost 10 weeks and he doesn’t hold rattles etc yet. He’s kicking his legs against anything noisy and trying to hit things but hasn’t started grabbing anything yet only my hair 😂!
Every baby is different aren’t they. Your LO may do other things first you will see as they grow up together how different they will be.

Please don't compare. He will do it in his own time.
I used to compare my oldest (2 and half) to his cousin who is 6 weeks younger than him she was rolling first and got teeth first. But he surpassed her. She's only just walking unaided and doesn't talk very well. Where people think my son is 3/4 because he's so advanced now xx
You’re right ladies I shouldn’t compare to my friends x

My LO is 13 weeks and doesn't do any of that. All he does is stuff his hands in his mouth and punches himself in his face, then looks shocked ha ha x

hahaha my little one punches himself in the face 😂

Mine is also 2 months and doesn’t hold rattles x

this made me laugh and feel so much better about my LG !! Thankyou x

pleasure, we've all just got to be realistic and kind to ourselves x

My boy is nearly 10 weeks old and can’t hold anything - doesn’t even show any interest in holding stuff…sometimes he puts his hand in his bottle whilst I’m feeding but he doesn’t try to grip it….I’m not bothered, it will come when he’s ready xx
