I'm sure this post probably exists somewhere in the mums net world but would like some words of encouragement and help please . My LO is 10 months and is showing no signs of crawling at all. He hates tummy time but I persevere every day and at every opportunity. He has only recently learnt to roll over both ways but doesn't seem to be able to bear weight on his arms or bring his knees up. I'm so worried. Was thinking about taking him to an cranial osteopath and was wondering if any other mums found success this way? What else can I do? I feel like such a failure of a mum. What am I doing wrong or what did I do wrong? Should I have done more tummy time when he was little? I felt like it was just fire fighting when he was little with breastfeeding issues, tongue ties etc. Maybe I didn't focus enough on tummy time? Am just feeling really low at the moment and feel like whenever I am out with other mums who have babies the same age, I am being judged. Or if a stranger asks how old he is, and if he is crawling, I feel so low and ashamed of myself when I tell them he isn't and he isn't showing any signs either. Have I hindered his development by not starting early enough?
