Worried about babies development..
I have contacted our HV a lot and to be honest, they haven’t been that helpful or have made me feel like I’m going mental!
My boy is nearly 10 months old, he does not babble, transition into sitting or standing (I know standing is still early), not crawling or copies.
He has always hated tummy time, he was a late roller as he only rolled belly to back at around 7.5 months.
I thought by now, we would have more babble noises or be wanting to push up on all fours but he just screams and flattens.
He’s never been the happiest baby, I’ve just always felt like there has been something wrong but have never put my finger on it or know what to tell people..
He SCREAMS whenever he is put on the floor but throws himself back to hit his head on us when we hold on, he flaps his arms a lot and just seems miserable, all of the time.
I’m kind of at a loss here, I’m a first time mum and other babies his age just seem a lot happier and are doing a lot more.
I feel like I’m missing out on my first time baby experience as he’s just upset all the time and cannot do anything..
We had our 9 month health visitor appointment the other day and I ticked “not yet” for a lot of the boxes, the health visitor kind of downplayed a lot of this and I felt like I was talked into ticking sometimes for a lot of the things but he doesn’t do them? I don’t know, it’s just making me really upset, I just want my happy boy but I don’t know what else I can do 😢😢
