hes not crawling

james is not crawling and he hates tummy time are there any outher mums whos baby has the same prob if so what did they do too help there little one

jack didn't crawl til he was just over 12mths old. he's not walking by himself quite yet either. as alan's mum said babies will do everything in their own time.
when he's on his tummy do you put toys in front of him to look at? maybe a playmat with different textured things on for him to feel/play with would be a good idea, have a look on trademe

my girls the same shes 7 mnths and has always hated tummy time.shes sitting up and has been for a week now but amnot worried.my son crawled at 8 1/2 mnths then walked at 15 1/2mnths so try not to stress

Paris hated it too, so learnt to sit, and that's how she stayed till 11 months when she learnt to bum shuffle. she stood by herself at about 14 months, and then she went back and filled in the gaps, learning finally to roll over, and to crawl, then one day she just started walking. babies do things in their own ways.. that i learnt the hard way - i tried everything from mirrors in fron tof her to toys in front of her, putting them near so she could reach them, far so she would have to move to get them... nothing worked. I spent too much time back then focusing on that, and not enough focusingon the bright little girl ihad who liked to just sit and figure stuff out. I'm sure James will do whatever he wants, when he wants - i know it's hard waiting but just take advantage of what he can do and it will be even more exciting when he finally learns all those things because it will be worth it.

Maya was close to 8 mths before she crawled, and yet she walked at just over 10 mths. Each baby is different, and will do things in theit own time, but the average age to start crawling is between 8-10 mths so your bub has plenty of time to learn! My fat lzy baby didn't even roll over until after 7 mths!

lol Lizzle! Jake is pretty busy! I particularly enjoyed the dancing to the Macarena (sp?)!!

thanks guys i such a worrie wort when it comes too my boy maybe cause he had a herina in his groin from when he was bron till 7 weeks old no oneevevn stoped it till then we thought he had colic but thank u the pluket nurses were making me worrie

oooh Ayja started sitting yesterday... i got her up from her nap and sat her in front of me with a couple of toys and for once, she didn't face dive or throw herself backwards - just sat nicely and used her hands to balance. Today has been great cos her new toys have taught her to balance with one hand and use the other to play.

ooooh i am so excited. looks funny though cos she's still such a tiny wee dot - i can't help but think "baby" .. but she's not, she's doing so much.. but still soo little.

oh how cool my boy just doubles up when sitting

i no all about huffer5lumb lol the outher day i left james on his tummy in the louge when i went back he had rolled onto his back but he wont do it again was so excited was j7umping around the house
