Legend says she’s still trying to figure out how to sit 😆

Some of these you might have started earlier, which is GREAT! But if you haven’t, definitely try to work some of these into your routine before the sixth month mark**

** With that being said, if your baby is not able to sit well while supported, don’t rush on the highchair one. Only do that one if your baby has good head & trunk control!

It also works with your own hair 😆😆 anyone else make floor decisions solely based on their dogs!?!?

Have you heard of these red flags to watch out for? Most parents miss the nuance that these are also totally normal on occasion! Many kids do most, or all, of the above on and off throughout infancy and toddlerhood. It only becomes a red flag when it’s persistent and interferes with daily functioning 💛💛

Your friendly reminder!! These clips compare my two babies. One daughter was crawling at the same age my first daughter was just pushing up on tummy time!

My first was ahead, my second was on time, both are just fine!!

It’s so hard not to compare siblings, especially if one was early on milestones.

Hang in there! ❤️

Are you in the 6 month scaries??

This is a common age where parents start asking, why is my baby so miserable all the time?!??

I promise it’s just a phase and it will get better soon!

I hope my girls use these words to describe me one day 🥹 something I’m working towards, especially being slow to anger

Tummy time is one major stressor for new parents!! I often hear, “Ms Holly, my baby is 6 weeks old and still can’t lift their head off the floor”

But that’s normal!! Tummy time is hard work for babies, and it often takes several MONTHS for your little one to be fully comfortable and strong on the floor.

A little goes a long way. Just a few minutes at a time can lead to major gains in the end.

If your little is struggling with tummy time, or if they’re just brand new to the world! Practicing on your chest is the best place to start. Eventually progressing to a wedge or pillow and then to the floor.

Don’t push baby too hard, but also don’t give up if they’re fussy at first. They will get there!❤️

Are these definitely a sign that something is wrong? NO! But the general guidelines for milestones, is the “expected age plus approx. 3 months.”

So if sitting (for example) is expected by 6 months, then by 9 months if your baby still can’t sit up, it’s time for a pediatrician visit to confirm everything is ok 🙂

It also means if your little one isn’t hitting a skill exactly on the month, you have a whole three MONTHS until you need to be concerned.

Remember there’s nothing wrong with getting an extra set of eyes on your baby’s development! ❤️
