ds trying so hard to crawl, and crying with frustration, guess ther's nothing i can do?

[mufti]

he is on his front and if you put him on his back , he just flips back to tummy. his arma and legs are so busy , but nothing happening and he's so upset, poor lamb

character building, leave him to it

dd went through that stage too, and ds is just getting to it now.

it's frustrating but perfectly normal

yeah, character and muscle building. my ds spent ages pulling his legs up behind him and rocking back and forth. took ages to actually crawl, but when he did, he was a brilliant crawler. yours sounds v young still.

Agree with the others. Can take quite a while for them to reach the next stage, but you cannot do anything much about it...

merry marigold, he is 7m today. i'm not bothered about averages , i know things happen when they happen. and i can still leave the room without worrying where he may end up at the mo'.

Sorry - when I said you can't do anything much about it, I meant the frustration, not the pace of development!!

thats why i asked, it's good to be able to find out that what you are seeing is normal. i did distract hin after a while, he's now helping metype, as i felt he was getting a bit fed up.
