My best friend and I had babies 3 weeks apart . My LO is older, and while I know all babies are different, I can't help but notice how many more things her LO is doing.
My girl sat unassisted first and get her two teeth first, but now I feel like we're getting passed up by so many things!
Her baby is crawling, mine is not even close (7.5 months old), hers says mama mine is not, hers is standing up by herself mine can't, hers pulls up like nothing mine can't, hers is almost walking mine is not, hers has 4 teeth mine got stuck at 2, etc.
If it was just a few things, I get it, but it feels like everything! It makes me feel terrible cause my LO didn't do much tummy time and that's on me, so I feel like I held her back.
We are practicing a lot now, but it seriously kills me! I want my LO to do all those things too!
Not saying I wish I had hers, because my girl is amazing n has twice the personality and calmness, but dang it's hard not to compare, especially when mine is 3 weeks older!
Don't know the point if this, rant perhaps? Thought maybe someone had encouraging words or could relate!
