The developmental milestones thread---what did your baby do today? :)

[JleStar]

Orla took her first 3 unaided steps yesterday and then fell on her bum. A couple mins later she took another 5 steps before falling on to me! So proud. Babies grow so fast!

Wonderful news! It's like their firt teps of independence. Although everyone warns about when LO starts to walk. They say I will be even more challenging keeping up with them. I look at it as my daily exercise. Lol..still have a few pounds to go to be at Pre prego weight.

My LO is crawling forward.

He's still a bit clumsy about it, but after watching him working on it for weeks, it's quite the little accomplishment in our world!

Aww...go bless him! Our lo's are growing up before our eyes.

Robyn grabbed a toy and put it in her mouth. She's put things in her mouth by accident before because she likes to chew her fists, but it seemed like she meant it this time.

Now the fun begins of making sure she doesn't put something in her mouth that she could choke on.

Ottie is babbling going to be a chatterbox like her sister!

Oh the wonderful babbling! My son today was a chatterbox as well. It seemed like he was telling complete stories in his win language. Lol

 

[JleStar]

Logan can get up onto his hands and knees into a crawling position and rocks backwards and forwards, today he moved his left knee forward and then moved each hand a little but then he got too excited and fell

Also he when hes sat on the floor playing with his toys he keeps trying to stand up holding onto things that are close by (toybox, mine or OH's leg, sofa etc)

Im so proud

You should be proud pixie! Looks like you LO is ready to crawl and stand. I know my LO started to do both in the same week.

 

[JleStar]

Yesterday my LO started to properly crawl! For the past 2 months she has been army crawling. Slowly she would get up on all fours and crawl a tiny bit but always go back to army crawling. Until last night! She was crawling all over the place

Congrats on crawling LO! Good luck mommy with LO being more mobile.

Ah, all these exciting moments are so lovely to read about! Yesterday my mum ( who only sees lily about every 3 weeks) put LO on her tummy and she managed to get up on to hands and knees and moved backwards!! She's been attempting to bum shuffle since before Christmas but still can't really do it and I didn't think she'd bother with crawling at all, but this has made me think differently my mum was so pleased to be there to see 'a first'

I agree mrs t, it is great to hear about all these great moments. I think the bum shuffle is so cute!

 

[JleStar]

Not really a milestone but today LO has got into the habit of kicking me when I'm changing her and when I give her an angry look she burst out laughing . It is funny but I'm sure it won't be when she gets much stronger hah . She sat up at 5 months and got a tooth at 5.5 . She has also started putting her hands up when she knows she is gonna be picked up . And of course I think she is the most clever baby in th world hehe .

Lol sounds like you o have a clever one on your hands. My son seems to laugh at me as well when I give him an angry look....shoukd we be worried? Lol

My LO squealed in happiness/excitement 4 times today. 3 times for me, and once when daddy was watching what I did to make her squeal. (Holding her legs and making her do a shake shake booty dance while I sing "booty booty booty rockin everywhere") lol.

She also pooped up into her armpits for the first time. I still can't figure out how...

 

[SarahBear]

Violet did her first real giggle today! I was so happy

 

[wifey29]

William is on day two of proper crawling and he is just thrilled with himself. He is racing from toy to toy, the excitement of getting to choose what he plays with is way more fun that the actual toy itself. So proud of him.

Amelia can follow my hand now with her eyes. That's really all she can do other than stare at a wall! I am waiting in anticipation for that first real smile! She smiles in her sleep all the time but I want her to smile at us!

 

[Keyval]

Aw clever boy . Lily-Mae still hasn't lifted her belly off the ground . She just shuffles backways on her tummy ha she will get there though

 

[vintagecat]

We've had proper babbling as of yesterday and today. We're hearing 'da', 'ma', and 'ga' finally. Before that it was mostly moaning and and 'ooh' and 'aah'. It's nice to hear some new noises, even though it does your head in after a while. She's also starting to suck on her toes.

This!

Time to get the stair gates sorted!

 

[staralfur]

Last night she went from sitting to standing unaided and stood on her own for about 30 seconds! Now just waiting for her to take a step...

 

[Snow Owl]

He grabbed my hair when I picked him up for a cuddle last night. It hurt but so funny as he refused to let go and it stopped him crying! Lol

 

[Fuze]

Today Olivia found her feet! She keeps playing with them whenever she is being changed it is soooo cute!!

 

[jodilee6]

We've also masted the art of sharing, so far I've been offered...

A soggy half chewed biscuit
His dummy (several times!)
His pingu for cuddles
More soggy half chewed food (not entirely sure what it was!)

And in return he's wanted everything I've had!

My lb shook his fist in response to a wave! And is holding his head for ages whilst on tummy (previously screamed during any tummy time) x
