Babies: 3 - 6 Months
No rolling at 4 1/2 months
Anyone else? I'm beginning to get worried. She doesn't even try. We give her like 20 minutes of tummy time a day (more if we can but she HATES it).

Thanks!
I thought the exact same thing when I read the post. She's a doll!

Thanks...this is what I was looking for. Someone to say, hey my child is X old and hasn't rolled. Thank you.
Don't let AW posts on here worry you or obsess too much about milestones charts. Those charts are just loose timelines with ranges of ages.. not the end all - be all of baby development. Your pedi should be asking about these things at your well checks, and if at any time your pedi is concerned, you will know.
Just keep up with the tummy time, even helping her roll side to side to see if she will initiate going the rest of the way... she'll figure it out in no time.

Hey my child is 5 months old and hasn't rolled yet.
There is no need to be concerned!
My 5.5 mo old has no interest and doesn't even try to roll. But he can sit unassisted and w/out tripoding. Some things happen early, some late.
My pedi also said some don't start til they're crawling.
I also have a 5.5 month old who refuses to roll.....
If it makes you feel better, they have done research and said this milestone isn't as accurate as it used to be with the SIDS back to sleep campaign.
When we were younger we slept on our stomachs, which gave us more tummy time and more reason to want to roll. Babies now a days are always on their backs, so they are less likely to want to roll over.
I'm not going to worry about it until the pedi tells me too, DH and I think DS will walk before he rolls
My child is almost 5 1/2 months old and hasn't rolled over.
Beautiful pictures!
My DD didn't start rolling until she was 5 1/2 months old. She rolled three times that day. Now- she rolls as soon as I put her on her back (over the right shoulder) and is close to rolling over the left shoulder as well as rolling tummy to back. Your LO will do it when she's ready. My LO was not interested at all in rolling over at 4 1/2 months, too.
DD sometimes rolls onto her left side. Well, it's more that she lifts her legs straight up and she falls to her left side. Then if I nudge her a little she'll roll onto her belly. That's as far as we've gotten.
