Arianna is frustrated!!

[SarahH]

Oh my goodness she is doing nothing but moaning the last few days... all day everyday!!

I think she is just frustrated as she isnt crawling yet. She shuffles on her bum and is SOOOO close to crawling but not quiet. I'm starting to think she might miss it out all together as she pulls herself up and cruises around the furniture and will walk holding our hands.

Any tips on how to get her crawling?

Awww bless her; they do get themselves so frustrated.

I would move Gabriella's toys so she had to reach for them but I made sure that she was able to touch it and then move it away for her to get (if that makes sense) as she'd get bored if she couldn't reach things.

I also crawled towards her, over exagerrating my movements
(I think she thought I was mad)

I think they will just do it when they are ready though. Gabriella was going backwards for ages (does Arianna do this?) and yesterday she just saw something she wanted and went for it

Arianna may just be one of these babies that goes straight to walking.

It's horrible to see them frustrated though.

yeah she goes backwards!!

I do all of that with the toys and me down on my hands and knees!!

She'll just do it when she is good and ready no doubt!
