Hi all,
Just wondered if anyone else wanted to contribute to a thread for people whose babies seem to be developing more slowly than their peers.
Although my DD, 10.5 months is very good on social skills - waved at 6 months, first word at 9 months she isn't too fast on the gross motor skills front.
It didn't used to bother me but now I'm getting sick of the smug looks from (some, not all!) Mums with crawling and cruising babies and the questions 'isn't she moving yet?' (e.g. from her grandparents in EVERY weekly phone call). I hadn't been to toddler group for a while and when I went last week all the babies who were younger than her were crawling, while she's still sitting.
So, just wondered really, if anyone was in a similar boat with a child of any age really!
