What is your baby trying to do already?

Recently we've realized Damien has every action ion of trying to crawl. Any time he is on his belly he tries to push off and grabs forward as of trying to crawl. We obviously don't expect anything to come out of this yet since he's still so little, 10 weeks today, but I was not expecting him to be moving like this yet! He doesn't roll back to belly yet so holy crap!

Violet is trying to crawl also ! She's still trying to roll back to belly and belly to back ! She's 10 weeks also what's your baby's birthday??

@danniellemichellexox October 24 is his birthday. He has figured out belly to back since four weeks consistently but back to belly just hasn't happened yet lol. It's crazy!!

LO has flipped herself over from pushing on her legs so hard. She has no idea what she did every single time it's hilarious. She's grabbing and reaching for everything now and she has quite the grip! She'll be 10 weeks on Tuesday. Loving this little person she's turning into.

My LO is trying to sit himself up. Anytime he is somewhat laying down he tries so hard to sit up!

My boy wants to sit up all the time. I finally tried him in the bumbo seat tonight and he was a happy boy.

My LO can roll from tummy to back and is now trying to go the other way, but she always gets stuck and then gets mad. I don't know why she wants to roll onto her tummy; she hates tummy time!

Maybe when she puts herself on her tummy she'll enjoy it more. Or at least I hope she does for you lol.

I don't do tummy time nearly enough with this LO. She hates it and on top of taking 30 minutes to eat then being upright for 15-20 minutes due to reflux and spit up it's like a 5 minute window of "play time" before she's ready for a nap. DD1 did so much more tummy time I feel pretty guilty.

My little girl wants to sit up so bad! She tries hard to pull herself up and will grab onto my fingers and try to pull herself up.

I feel the same way! He is usually in the mood to play after eating. And I don't want to ruin a nice playtime by putting him on his tummy. He does get a lot of time holding his head up while being held and laying tummy down on my chest. He has held his head up strong since day 3. But hates being on his tummy. 
He has been sleeping his crib for 3 nights and has done amazing. Previously was in a rock and sleep cradle next to my side of the bed. I miss him. ;.(

@chein1 oh my gosh I feel the exact same way ... Play time for us is literally right when she wakes up from any naps and varries from like 5-15 minutes max because we do a diaper change and my baby takes like 30-45 minutes to eat sometimes (bottle fed BM) ... She eats a lot and eats pretty slow (works for us though to prevent spitting up) ...that whole EASY (eat, activity sleep you time) schedule does not work for us at all ... more like play, diaper change, eat until she falls asleep lol ... I thought I was alone !

@danniellemichellexox you are definitely not alone! LO takes almost the full hour to drink her bottle (formula). She just likes to take her time, but then she's ready for another nap haha

danniellemichelle

@chein1 well I'm glad I'm not alone !! I did some research on play time and reading books, talking and singing are all included in playing ... I do that all day so it made me feel so much better !! Lol

My baby has been rolling over from his stomach to his back. When ever he is on his stomach he pushes with his feet and kind of moves around.
