Your LO's development

[AppleBlossom]

I was just interested to know when your LO's all started to do different things. So when did they first:

Smile
Hold their head up for a few seconds
Hold their head up themselves
Sit up with help
Sit up without help
Start teething
Laugh
Roll over
Stand up with help
Crawl/shuffle themselves along
Walk

Obviously some of you with very young babies who will not have done very many of these or even any but maybe it would be nice for you to make the list and then edit as they happen

Bren started smiling at about 5-6 weeks.
He can hold his head up just fine now.
He is still not reaching for things, which is driving me crazy, but my pediatrician friend told me not to worry.

Grace started smiling at about 3 weeks and has been able to hold her head up for a while since she was about 2 weeks

hi all
My princess has good control over her head, and had it from birth really, just waiting for 'proper' head holding
had smiles from about 4 weeks, its just wonderful and she's starting to be able to move, kind of like shuffle a bit around cot, for example move upwards in pram/moses basket but think it might be more of an accident
its so exciting
