Crawling

Hi Mums! My 5 month old is SO determined to crawl and is getting more and more frustrated and angry every day when she tries and can’t move. I’ve tried to tuck her knees for her to show her and help with shifting weight etc but she gets so angry that she can’t move. Does anyone have any ideas on how to deal with this? Do I just let her be angry and try to work it out or do I pick her up?

Perhaps it’s her plan to have Mom pick her up ;)

My boy was the same 🤣 what I did was take a blanket and put it under his belly and lifted him to where he was on his hands and knees and moved him around. He liked it. No idea if it helped but I did let him get mad until he would cry then I picked him up.

@🪷Faith🪷 I might try the blanket again! So far I’ve been letting her get frustrated and grabbing her when she’s too upset - they’re so determined !!

I had to try to lure my baby with toys and his soother to show him. Eventually he got the movements down and now he’s a speedy boy

This is my LO! I fold a pillow case over and hold him from his tummy and he moves around while I hold his weight if that makes sense?
