Hi ladies,
So by baby boy is almost 18 weeks. I’ve been doing regular tummy time now for awhile. I know he has plenty of time to master it but he is showing no signs of trying to roll over. He was trying a few weeks back and always got so close but never actually managed it. This past week he has been bringing his knees up to his chest and moving them up and down as if he’s trying to crawl but his arms stay still (unless he is reaching for the toy I’m using as encouragement). He’s a big baby for his age as he is in 6-9 months in a lot of his clothes so I assumed he might take a while to roll but it’s like he’s just stopped trying! What happens if he doesn’t keep trying? Can he skip this milestone or will he just do it randomly one day? Anyone else’s baby gave up? XX
