7 months and still not rolling, anyone else?

He’s done it a few times so I know he can do it, but he just isn’t bothered at all even though we practice nearly every day.

My LB was 7m on Tuesday and only started to roll on Tuesday too. He doesn't do it too often on the floor yet but if I pop him on the bed he rolls over almost straight away 😆

Yep! My LG can roll both ways and will do it occasionally out of nowhere, but is totally unbothered. Was going through a phase where she preferred to sit but now she’s throwing herself over doing that as she wants me to help her stand all the time! They are all contrary I think lol x

I probably should be grateful he’s not throwing himself around his cot at night 😂. He just wants to sit all day at the minute or slide backwards when he’s on his tummy.

My little girl isn't bothered about rolling at all. She sits, but when rolling she gets onto her side and then stops.
I've decided to not stress about it and let her do what she wants in her own time. I'm not practicing per se, but will encourage if she's starting to do it.
Tbh I've given up looking at milestones as all babies are different and will do everything at their own pace xx

Mine did it a few times a couple of weeks ago but hasn't since. I think he realised it results in him being on his belly, which he hates, so hasn't bothered since.

Same!! I’m sure they’ll do it in their own time! X

How did your little ones get on? My daughter is 8m tomorrow and not rolling but sitting fine…. Looking for some reassurance they may eventually (or go straight to crawling from sitting position? 🤷‍♀️)

my little boy started army crawling at 9 months and properly crawling at 10 months 😊. He started rolling onto his front around 8.5 months too. Never did roll to his back (and still hasn’t) so became a front sleeper 😂

Small head reported following 20 week scan

Has anyone else had it flagged that their baby is in the bottom 5th percentile for head size?

They said everything was fine whilst we were in the scan and then I got a phone call the next day saying that it’s on the small side and we’re being referred to a paediatric specialist at St George’s. Has anyone else had this and how did things go??

Would you bring 9 week old to a family party of 35+ people?

These are also people who will want to pass the baby around and get a turn to hold him. He just got his 2 month shots two days ago

Exercise 6 weeks after c section

What movement did people start to introduce? I won’t do anything too vigorous until I’ve seen the pelvic physio as I don’t want to compromise anything that may have been extremely weakened through pregnancy! But just wondering what types of classes/movement people started off with?

Induction experience

I just wanted to share my experience with being induced as I wasn’t sure what to expect and thought it may help others.

I opted for the foley balloon which was inserted at 8am Saturday morning, I had to stay in hospital due to hypertension and protein urine however usually you can just go home once this has been done. The insertion of the balloon was not painful, was slightly uncomfortable as there was slight pressure. I actually found having the cervix checked prior to be worse (again not painful at this point just uncomfortable) The balloon had little effect and after having it removed I was still only 1cm. Removal also was pain free and hardly even noticeable.

I then had my first dose of the gel and definitely noticed a difference, I started experiencing period like cramps almost immediately however they were light and manageable. After 6 hours I had another cervix check and although my cervix was soft it was still only 1cm and was only open at the front. I had another dose of the gel and felt an increase in pressure and more intense cramping where I now required pain relief (codeine). After another 6 hours I had another cervix check and I had now dilated to 2-3cm however was still quite difficult to get all the way through so a third gel was recommended which I agreed to.

Almost immediately I noticed the difference and was in considerable pain, I had paracetamol and codeine however the contractions had now become intense and a lot closer together (around 3 minutes apart). After a couple of hours I had my last cervix check and was 4cm and taken down to the Labour ward to have my waters broken and an epidural.

I had been in my room for approx 20minutes when my waters broke by themselves and I was now 10cm and actively pushing…. There was no time for the epidural and my beautiful girl arrived into the world within 2 minutes of pushing.

All in all I would say the cramps/contractions were manageable up until the third gel where it became pretty unbearable however it was for a very short time a gas and air helped take the edge off. The worst part about any of it was actually the later cervix checks where after stimulating the cervix my contractions were at their most painful.

If I had to be induced again I would skip the balloon and opt for the gels immediately as thy had a quicker effect and I would have been out a lot sooner if I had done this to begin with.

One more thing, I’ve never believed when people say “you forget the pain once they’re here” but I can honestly say this is true. It’s been 4 days and I would do it all again in a heartbeat.
