3-6 months - What’s next?

@mary0608196 Once you baby proof and/or make yes spaces then it’s quite nice how obsessed they get with crawling that they want nothing to do with you until they start to get bored of it and then just crawl because they want to grab your pant leg to pick them up

@mary0608196 I miss the potato baby stage so much. But my back is truly paying the price.

@mary0608196 It was way better for me when my kid started moving and grooving. Babies that age are so boring

@shafiqul I’m in the same boat as OP and actually had this thought today! I set my baby on her activity mat while I did some dishes. I check on her every few minutes. She is starting to show interest is rolling from back to belly. I thought to myself, “ yep, this set up has its days numbered”.

@sweetlybroken97 So true! My 5 month old can roll back to belly but then gets stuck. She screams at me until I flip her back. She then turns back over 5 seconds later. I can't get much done at the moment!

@amandalynn88 So, her plan is working… lol

 

[moustakion]

@amandalynn88 Yes! Just a couple weeks ago I could leave him alone on the play mat for a bit and I go do some stuff around the house. Now he can roll onto belly and gets stuck, I have to be always next to him to unstuck him cus he'll cry and cry, but can't go back onto his back yet. Hoping he'll learn soon before he starts daycare!

@shafiqul My baby was mobile at 5 months and it’s definitely more work!

 

[shafiqul]

@hopeful14 They’re finally “fun” once they start moving but also a huge and ever present danger to themselves lol.

 

[hopeful14]

@shafiqul Totally and you can’t take your eyes off for one second

 

[shafiqul]

@hopeful14 Our newest baby is one and I would describe him as a “climber”. Send help hahahA

 

[hopeful14]

@shafiqul SAME. I think we’ll be getting a floor bed

 

[ecce]

@shafiqul I was going to say this too! It gets more difficult and easier simultaneously. as they grow different things become problematic.

 

[donlor]

@shafiqul my baby is almost 4mo

 

[benvi85]

@shafiqul Haha oh boy!

 

[daylecranfield]

@shafiqul Mine is 4 weeks tomorrow and she is a fidgeter she’s always in a different place lol

 

[karingkristen]

@benvi85 Definitely easier except when it’s not

 

[benvi85]

@karingkristen Bahahaha yes 100%

 

[niceguycharlotte81]
