6 mo old and having a hard time bringing objects to his mouth , should I be worried ?
DS is almost 7 mo. He puts his hands in his mouth, but seems to have a hard time putting objects -toys, food, pacifier- in his mouth. I remember at this age DD used to find her own pacifier in the crib and put it in her mouth, my DS has a very hard time doing this even if the pacifier is right there in his reach. it's not that he can't do it at all , but he just past week or so started doing it but REALLY struggles with it. I just got him one of those self feeders , whatever you call it , a stick with a net on it, you put fruit in it. He reaches for it with his mouth when I hold it up, but when I hand it to him he has a hard time holding it up and bringing it up to his mouth. Should I be worried or is it still too early ? I am afraid to google it

I'm not really sure what the worry would even be! Poor coordination?? I think he's still very young and you shouldn't worry at all!

No worries at all, That's still pretty young. DS didn't start putting his paci in his mouth till almost 9 months.
