rolling...and eating

[emma28]

When did your baby start to roll? Abigail couldn't be less interested but I thought she should be at least trying about now?

Also,

She shows no interest in eating either..still happy with just the bottle. She is not feeding more frequently and does not wake during the night. Would yous start weaning anyway or wait til she shows some signs? I am wondering because most people are telling me she should be weaned by now but I don't really see any need to yet.

Cheers for any replies

Not sure when babies start to roll over but Jacob is almost 4 months old and he's trying his hardest to roll now. All babies are different though, maybe have a word with your HV if your worried.

Jacob is just starting to watch you when you are eating now. He's still only on milk and has recently dropped another bottle during the night. He had one around 11.30pm which he dropped some time ago and one at 4.30am which he has recently dropped. So now he only had 4 8oz bottles in 24 hours!

I thought he'd be really starting to get hungry now, he's around 16lbs, but it seems he just isn't I'm going to wait until he starts showing some more signs, as long as he's still gaining weight he should be ok.

Take no notice what people are telling you, it's recommended that babies arn't weaned until they are 6 months old now anyway. I'd have a word with your HV, just to see what she says

Thanks for that, it's put my mind at rest a bit.

We haven't got a health visitor as I haven't got round to changing our Drs yet tbh I am hating the idea of those stupid appointments that you get when you join a new practise...still it's been 11 weeks now so i suppose....
