Re: At what age did your LO do the following..

My kids were very different. Ds1 rolled over at 2 months, sat up at 4-5 months, ate solids at 3 months, crawled at 6 months and walked at 11 months. DS 2 rolled at 3-4 months, didn't sit up securely until 8-9, ate solids by 4 months, crawled at 10-11 months, and walked at 14 months.

Re: At what age did your LO do the following..

off the top of my head
They started rolling at 4 months
They could sit up (but would still fall over sometimes) at 6 months
They crawled around 9 months
Started solids around 5 months

And I am just going to put my 2 cents in about crawling not being a milestone anymore. The reason it isn't a milestone anymore is because peds tell moms to have their babies sleep on their back and over the years it has led to babies getting less tummy time which in turn led to babies not crawling. Another issue has been some babies being in stuff all the time (ie exersaucer, swing, bouncy etc) So right now less babies are crawling but that doesn't mean it is not important! Crawling builds proximal stability, which in turn helps with distal control (writing, hand control). Also by crawling babies learn transitional movements which also help the stability/mobility around their hip. I am not saying that if your baby doesn't crawl they will have issues with their handwriting etc. However if they have underlying issues (ie low muscle tone) it could play a role.

I just don't want mommies out their to think that crawling isn't important but I don't want mommies of babies who don't crawl think there is something wrong either. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
