*** NOVEMBER 2011 BABIES ! *** Chrysanthe-Mums - 39 babies here already!!!

awww - i got lucky with the camera recently - hope you do too soon. our LO can't even support his weight on his arms yet, which i think they have to do before they can roll over. it's crazy - he loves to stand - can stand for 10 minutes, but he still doesn't want to be on his tummy.

as for the crib bumper, he still has to have a warm body to sleep or he wakes up, but we're hoping to get him to the crib in the next month or two as he learns to self-soothe, and we haven't decided about the bumper yet.

I did get one picture of a smile with a moving arm yesterday finally. Kristin can't fully extend her arms while laying down. Her doctor said that's a 6-month development thing. I still haven't seen her roll over but she has rolled from her tummy to her back 5x now in her crib. Always when nobody is watching but she smiles when I go in to turn her over. We don't really do any standing for more than a few seconds but she spends all of her crib time on her tummy. I am afraid to have tummy time on the couch even with my arm extended because I'm afraid I won't catch her well enough.

We never had K in our bed at night so I expect that we will have very different experiences. K slept in her swing (not moving) until she was almost 2 months and has been in her crib since.

so interesting how different babies are, isn't it? yay for your smiling pic! i have a lot of pics with fuzzy arms b/c baby was moving - i think they look kinda neat.

logan is happiest on his tummy both sleeping and awake so has a lot of tummy time. As a result he has a really strong neck and can lift himself well on his arms, sometimes even extand his arms (although not usually). But he can't really stand yet. He seems to want to so we try a bit each day, but his legs collapse after about 2 seconds.

Andrew hates tummy time. I know he can lift his head and support his weight (I've seen him do it) but he just flops down and looks at me as if to say "you must be joking!". He much prefers to stand and can take his own weight if propped against the sofa or your leg. I'm trying to discourage this and get him sitting but he stiffens up and won't bend!

Nyn how much does Leia weigh now? We just got home from our 4 month 2 week weight check and we are at 11 lb 11.5 oz. She was at 24" at 4 months so she's also long and skinny.

Connor is also starting to wear some 6-9 month stuff, just because his torso is too long and it is getting hard to snap some of the 3-6. The 3-6 month pants still fit fine.

lol - sounds like our LO - he loves to be stiff as a board (which makes changing and bath time a bit challenging at times).

HUGE CONGRATS!!! wonderful pics!

Leia's so big now. She's not very chubby but super duper long lol. So she is already wearing 6-9 month stuff! aah!

hey, there! good to see you! our LO is also quite long - 90th % for height and 10th percentile for weight. cute avatar!

afm, LO rolled over!! well, he really just fell - as a fluke, he pushed up on his arms, then he lost his balance and fell over - he startled himself b/c he was on his back all of a sudden, but hey, we'll take it!

still hating tummy time, but hoping he'll hate it less now that he has used his arms.

 

[Huggles]

well done on the rolling over fides!
Logan's rolled numerous times from tummy to back, but i'm pretty sure that every time is an accident caused by loss of balance. He never seems to do it deliberately.

 

[bbygurl719]

Just back from Ella's 4 mponth appt. she is 13lbs 13ozs above 50% , 24 1/2ins height above 50% and 16cm head circumfrence above 50%.. poor baby got shots again. thank u about TTC and the Avatar (my all time fav pic) ella rools from belly to back and back to belly already!!
