I really don't see a huge difference in him from his 6 month appointment to now as far as what he is doing. He was sitting up then, but not crawling, and that is still the case. He doesn't "dance", clap his hands, or really babble anything outside of the typical "AHH" screams. When I talk to my mom on the phone, she always asks what his new "tricks" are, and I feel like its been months since I had anything to say.
Anyways... Not sure if I'm just expecting too much, or am just a worried Momma. Do any of you have any idea or experience with this "sticky finger" situation?? Thanks!!
Re: XP 6-9: Constantly opening and closing hands..?
Some kids don't crawl until they are almost a year old. They all advance at their own pace when they're ready.
Talk to your pedi too. That should also help calm your worries.
Also mine didnt crawl until 8 months exactly. Yesterday was the first time he clapped his hands and he doesn't dance.

You girls are great- thank you!! I don't know why this worries me so much all of a sudden, he's been doing it for months.
I totally get that the crawling thing is different for every baby, and that some never do! I think I am more worried about the lack of any "new developments" since the 6 month appointment.
I really appreciate your feedback!!
Thanks janniep! I am sure this isn't a big deal, but I suppose I will ask his pedi about it next month at his 9 month appointment since he will no doubt do it then!
And twins! So much fun (and work, I'm sure). I secretly hope for twins someday!!
sure! definitely ask your pedi for peace of mind.
as for the twins...they are a lot of fun but also twice (though it feels like 20 times) the work!
