Reese has been crawling for about a week now and she now crawls to anything stationary (or anything that looks stationary) and pulls herself up to stand. I have been walking with her with the dinosaur thing and holding her hands.
What are some other good things for walking practice/standing practice?
Re: pulling up to stand
Crazy woman, don't practice! KNOCK.HER.DOWN.
Walking=a whole new level of mischief.
The Leap Frog table was good for us, though after about 2 months of them pulling up it had to go on sabbatical because they were able to climb on top of it.
I will probably bring it back out in a couple months and see how they are with it because I feel like it will be good to help teach them shapes and colors later.
this just made me laugh so freaking hard. She's mischievous crawling, I can't imagine it being worse. But I know it can be.
the dinosaur = https://bit.ly/ebw6FP
We have a couple of push toys like a shopping cart that they enjoy. Other than that we just let them cruise the furniture (which also meant we had to teach them "no"). T is walking up a storm now, but A seems largely uninterested in walking (although she will climb on anything) - so I guess our approach has yielded mixed success.
ETA: The giraffe in the siggy pic is not one of their favorites.
After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!
Although, yes, Leap Frog table was the biggest thing.
musical table, dino.... we also bought a lighter and smaller version of a push toy by FP sorta like this https://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-Bright-Beginnings-Activity-Walker/dp/B000L53D4O/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1316053676&sr=8-8
that one is super popular now bc it is so light they can really guide it around easily.
Agreed! I'm more exhausted now then I ever was when they were newborns!
