Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Only rolling to one side- normal?

DD only rolls to right side, but she will roll across a room within a few mintues.  BUT she cannot roll to her left.  We thought this must be b/c she is right handed, but at our doctor visit on Friday, doctor made a face like it wasn't normal and said to keep an eye on it.  Did everyone else start rolling both ways from the beginning?  She has been rolling to the right for about a month, but has never rolled to the left.  She acts like she doesn't even know where to start when I try to get her to do it.  TIA!!!

Re: Only rolling to one side- normal?

  • LO's just been rolling to the right....not the left for like a month now.

  • DD only rolled one direction for the first month or so. Then she started back to belly. Then she started rolling the other direction. So that is completely normal.

    How do you know she is right handed, though? She shouldn't be showing a major preference for one over the other until she is two.

    In any case, I wouldn't worry about her rolling yet.

  • Hmmm- didn't know that about the right/left handed thing.  She is a kicker and she will kick twice as much with her right leg than her left, and since she rolled to right- we just assumed.  No one in our families are lefties- so we went off that.  But I guess we'll find out when she's two!
