NOT YET CRAWLING OR STANDING

Hi lovelies, is there anyone here whose their bubbas are not yet crawling or standing? Just rolling? My childminder worries me when she said to ask my HV to have my LO hips checked. I wasn’t worried until she said that.

Getting her hips checked is a good idea and a possible PT evaluation. It’s true every child grows at their own pace, but it doesn’t hurt to be proactive and make sure you aren’t missing anything 💜

is she sitting?

Avatar

yeah. I’ll have her check but hopefully nothing to worry about. She started rolling over at 8mos.

yes but she was pretty late to that too - she started sitting 2 days before she turned 9 months x

Mine isn’t either

My little girl isn’t crawling or standing yet she was 10 months on the 3rd, she sits perfect but has no interest in crawling she’d rather fold herself in half and stretch then move 🙄 I’m just working on the theory she’s a little lazy x

My little boy isn’t crawling of standing either was 10 months on the 6th! He has his review soon so will discuss this with his health visitor. I’m not worried but bothers me when others comment on it 🙄 x

Kelly I had my review before she was 10 months it made me feel awful as they said I’d have a phone call about her development as she wasn’t walking, when I got the call the lady just asked if I was worried I said no and she said that’s absolutely fine and I should just call them if I had any concerns, don’t let it worry you or make you feel bad, go with your own instincts x

Avatar

thank you for the heads up! They shouldn’t make you feel this way though. Fair enough check them over etc but to say because she’s not walking..hold on most babies are not walking this age. I’m sure our babies will crawl/stand when they are ready hey 🥰

Mine isn’t doing either. He started rolling at 4mos but can’t quite work out crawling. He somehow manages to propel himself backwards and gets stuck in odd places but mostly just looks like an awkward turtle! I’m not too worried as they all go at their own speed.

Mines only just started both this past week. I wouldn’t worry

My lg is 10 months and has only started army crawling and doesn’t do it often.
I really wouldn’t worry! X

My LG was 10 months on the 3rd and she isnt doing either, she will kind of cruise around on her bum if sitting and if on her tummy she just pushes herself backwards. She will grab at furniture but won't try and pull herself up on it yet. She would be just over 9.5 months old with her corrected age as she was 3 weeks early. She only started sitting unaided at 9 months and literally did it over night so I reckon she will be the same with crawling and standing

When do things get easier?

As we entered the 9-12 month stage, my son started crawling and pulling himself up. He also became more clingy and does not play alone, still doesnt sleep through the night, and this week has been sick (so EVERYTHING amplified). I am tired and overwhelmed. Please lie and tell me things get better. 🥺

4 month bed time

What time do you put your babies to bed?
What time do you start your 'routine?'
My LO currently goes to bed around 10.30pm, and I know i need to start bringing it forward. Everytime ive tried, it takes longer for my LO to settle.
We are exclusively breastfeeding. Any advice Mamas?

Colostrum storing?

Has anyone successfully extracted colostrum before the baby’s born? Apparently it gets produced from 16w pregnant and you can start storing it in the freezer but I’m 34w looking at my nipples and the syringes on amazon wondering how it works?? Like what did you use and did it hurt? 🥲

Baby with chronic congestion

Hi everyone! My 1 year has been a congested baby since birth almost. She breathes through her mouth so often that it wakes her up multiple times at night and she cries and screams and then struggles to go back to sleep. She wakes up every 1-3 hours and sometimes can’t go back to sleep for 2-3 hours!!! Piriton is the only thing that seems to help her sleep mostly through the night but I can’t keep giving her that!!
Does anyone have tips as to have I can do or give her? Has anyone experienced? I have no idea when I’ll get an ENT appointment and I have no idea what he can give a 13 mo :( we are desperate for sleep so any tips are welcome!! We have tried steam inhalation, saline drops, vapour rubs and everything off the counter basically!

Combi feeding advice

Has anyone gone from EBF to combi feeding? Currently do one bottle of EBM per night and they one half formula half breast milk mixed in the day. The other times she still feeds on me. Ideally I want to feed all day via bottle and all night with breast. She’s 7 weeks and takes a bottle well, how long should I leave it before adding another bottle to her daily routine?
