My Son Riley, Was born on August 28th 2009. He is 5 months old and 6 days.

Riley loves to play with all this colourful toys inwhich are connected to his excersauser. He loves to babble and squeek :)

He has rolled from him belly to his back about 5 times in total, Has rolled the other way with a little suport. He can not roll well yet, although he tries. He goes to bed at 10pm and wakes up about 7-8am. He sleeps during the day around 4pm until about 6pm. He does not like tummy time yet. He gets very fusterated. He loves to eat sweet potatoes, but he isnt too big with Cereal yet. Sometimes he eats alot and other times he spits it out. He definatly can not sit alone yet, but for a short period he can. He leans towards whatever he wants. If the remote is beside me, He will lean down and grab it. He is a very excited baby. :) He loves being naked! ha ha. He kicks and laughs and throws his arms around when I change him. He also LOVES taking baths. He went swimming on his 5 month mark, and Splashed alot with lots of smiles. He is truly a blessing. I love being his mother. I am so proud.

My baby is 5 1/2 months old. She started rolling from her back to her stomach when she was 4 months and from her stomach to her back two weeks after that. She can sit by her self and has been able to bear weight on her legs since she was 2 months. She is trying to pull up on things, but is unsuccessful..ha. She is eating solids 2 times and day and loves her juice out of her sippy cup. She holds her own sippy cup and bottle but if i hold her while she drinks she gets lazy..lol.. She babbles all of the time but no distinguishable words yet. She can not crawl yet but has started to scoot a little bit. She can roll from one side of the room to the other..lol.. It is amazing how much they grow in such a short amount of itime! I just love to watch her!

My daughter is 5 months old and she can roll from tummy - back. She tries to hold her bottle, transfers objects from left to right, grabs and plays with her hands and feet, laughs out loud, eats cereal and drinks from sippy cup during spoon feeding, grabs toys, blows bubbles, does mini push-ups. She is learning how to sit by herself. She still needs some support/help sitting.

My son is 5 months old and is rolling both ways, sits for a little bit at a time before tipping over. He LOVES to jump! He grabs things and will switch from hand to hand. He 's been smiling since the day he was born and has a great belly laugh that can brighten anyone's day. He is very ticklish especially on his neck and his feet and squeals when you kiss him there. He gives nice, wet slobbery kisses and is working on getting some teeth. He loves blowing bubbles and raspberries. He is eating food twice a day. Loves veggies and fruits and is starting to like rice cereal. He drinks water and sometimes a bit of juice out of a sippy cup on his own. Says mamama and dadada and talks (babbles) all day. When he is on his tummy he tries to push up on his hands and knees to crawl and gets frustrated when he goes nowhere. Had been sleeping through the night since he was one month old up until recently now gets up to eat once or twice a night.

My girl is 22 weeks - she loves to stand (assisted) and can sit up by herself but will still topple over. She tries to hold her bottle, but can't yet. She's eating cereal and veggies. She rolls from belly to back but not the other way yet. She loves screaching too! She still gets up in the middle of the night, however.

Ashleigh - posted on 01/31/2010

My little girl has slept through the night for 4 months now, she rolls tummy to back, but not the other way yet. She is working on holding her bottle and sitting on her own. She can pull herself up to a standing position, bables, blows bubbles, and is spoon fed. She plays with her toys alot. It's so cute! Since she was born she was able to scoot around so she is always a few feet from where you lay her down at.

My son can roll from his back to his stomach and to his back again, he can sit up for short periods but its him propped up on his budda belly that helps alot. He puts his hands on his bottle but cant hold it by himself just yet. Can sleep through the night now, and he laughs so much now and realizes that he likes his mommy most when it comes to strangers, and is making alot more sounds now too :)

Julie - posted on 01/31/2010

He was born a month early so he's probably behind alot of babies his age. Sitting up on his own for the most part, have to watch him for the odd time he will topple over. Started eating cereal. Will do mini-pushups and hold head up. Picks up toys and tries to suck his toes.

Kayla - posted on 01/31/2010

My 5 month old is now sitting up for the most part by herself with a very watchful eye just incase of tumbling. She trys to pull her self to sitting she can do it if on an incline from like her boppy or a pillow. She started Cereal two weeks ago and is now starting to open her mouth for it soooo adorable. She has been rolling for over a month now back to front and front to back. She pushes up on her arms and crawl backwards a lil. She loves playing with her toys and has tons of positive energy.

Kay - posted on 01/30/2010

My son, can crawl, help (he is 5 1/2 months)!! Still a bit of an amateur! He cannot sit up unaided yet, and has no teeth. He is good with his weetbix and likes to drink water. If he doesn't want it he will push is away in no uncertain terms. He tries to hold his bottle but has only taken a bottle for 2 weeks so needs a bit of help. He blows rasberries and loves to play and get rasberries on his tummy back!! They really are such a joy!

My baby is 5 months old and she rolls over tummy to back and back to tummy. She can sit up on her own. She just started crawling. (Amazing I know) She doesn't have any teeth yes but she does eat cereal (just started about 2 weeks ago). So far she is a big fan of rice but not so much of oatmeal. She has been able to blow raspberries for a few months now. She is nursed and never gets a bottle but she does have a sippy cup. As for sleep. She sleeps between 8 and 11 hours a night. (This started when I gave her the cereal) Some nights are better than others.

My little guy Gabriel rolls over both ways and can sit up by himself if positioned the proper way.He tries his hardest to crawl...but often winds up looking like he is doing a one legged push-up before he face-plants.He has a real fascination with his toes and often looks amazed or confused when he wiggles them.He seems to only babble in response or to music(a very reserved babbler) but is always laughing(sometimes even in his sleep).We constantly play mimicking games,ever since he was born,and he is very good.He copies facial expressions to a t,and some sounds.He is also very ticklish.I prepare all of his food(except cereal) so he eats what we eat(eggs,potatoes,chicken,sausage,mango,kiwi,rice,etc)everything except fish,shellfish,and milk products since three months of age.He is breastfeed so we have a hard time introducing juice in a bottle(but we are getting there)and we get up every so often at night to feed.He is currently teething,but doesn't have any teeth yet.

Kristine - posted on 01/30/2010

My baby can roll from back to tummy and tummy to back on either side; tries to get the bottle from me and when I give it to him, would put it into his mouth; he can sit by himself; starting to get on all fours; can move forward like a worm towards any object that fancies him; very talkative and can say 'Hi' although a bit indistinctive; anything that he can get his hands to goes into his mouth; loves jumping; eats rice cereal, sweet potato, and carrots and potato; one of his bottom teeth is already coming in; when he is on his tummy, he likes to rock his head as if he is head-banging... lol... and when he is on all fours, he rocks himself like crazy! he is not sleeping yet thru the night but we will get there.

Melinda - posted on 01/29/2010

My daughter loves blowing rasberries, rolls every way she can, scooches on her back or tummy to get at her brothers, me or favorite toys, can stand if held and loves "jumping" if held that way. She babbles and does the little dolphin sounds as well as saying hi and mommy well enough that she could be understood by family members that met her for the first time during the holidays.She's able to eat oatmeal and wheat cereal but seems to have a problem with rice cereal. She also loves toys with buttons that make noise or just wrestling with the little "bear bear" (her name for it) that her big brother got her when she was born.And thankfully she's slept through the night since she was just a couple of months old. She's been waking up once a night this past week because of a new tooth coming in though.

my baby holds his bottle, rolls from front to back, sits up, plays with his feet, puts his feet in his mouth, he eats baby food, sleeps through the night 90% of the time, laughs, he's almost crawling. he's pushing up on his arms and putting his legs under him. he also scoots around on his arms, he's mimicking sounds and he is grabbing things with the raking grasp

Our little boy just turned 5 months on the 26th and he rolls front to back. The back to fron he almost has. He holds his bottle on his own, walks all around the kitchen in his walker and spins all over the place. haha. He does not sit up on his own yet but he will stand at the coffee table unassisted for 3-5 minutes at a time. I just hold my hands behind him in case:) He has VERY strong legs! He eats breakfast and dinner and has formula the rest of the day. He sleeps from about 8 or 9 at night until 7 or 8 in the morning. He is a blast to watch grow.

My 5 months old has been smiling, giggling and on solids since 3 months. He has been able to bear weight on his legs since 3 months also. We just recently got him a walker and he LOVES it. He bounces around the house constantly. He loves to squeal and blow bubbles. He can roll from back to belly and vise versa. He hugs and open mouth kisses. He rawrs at us when we're playing. He is also a fan of hitting. I have no idea where he learned that one from. lol He loves to stick his tongue out also and blow raspberries. He thinks it is so funny. He babbles all day everyday! At times it even sounds like he is speaking real words. He can hold his own bottle but the little stinker rather I do it. Pretty much anything he can hold goes in the mouth. And he has been sleeping through the night since he was born. I am a blessed mommy with that one!



He is trying to crawl and sit up on his own but he hasn't figure those out just yet. He gets frustrated when trying.





*Edit*

He also has this soft nipple sippy cup with handles that he loves. And he tries to help me feed him solids.

My son Malachai turned 5 months last week friday. He rolls over on both sides, he is a big chatter box...lol...lol. He has been holding his bottle for quite some time now and pushes away your hand when you try to hold it for him, he is also crawling, one thing is that he does not sit by himself for long periods of time. When he is supported he stands and jumps up and down a lot. We went to a "Play and grow with your baby" program yesterday where I got to realize that he likes to hit.

My daughter can roll from belly to back, can sit by herself, has been sleeping through the night since 6 weeks old, says mama and hi, is starting to get her bottom teeth in, loves to put everything in her mouth and chew. I am truely amazed at how much she is changing!

My son is 5 and half months, he rolls front to back and the other way around, He doesn't say words but love making sounds. He holds his own bottle sometimes. From a lay down position he can sit up, also starting to crawl. He loves playing with his toy's. I don't have my son in a walker yet cause I read study's saying it is not good for him until after 6 months of age.

My son is 5 months and he can sit up on his own for a little bit then tobbles over, He isn't rolling over yet , when he's on his back he goes half way. He laughs all the time and is trying to hold his bottle on his own but hasn't quite got it yet

My 5-month old is rolling over from his stomach to his back and sometimes sleeps on his side. He holds his own bottle with two hands (when he's not being lazy), but he can't tilt it up when it starts getting empty. He is still blowing bubbles and drooling all over the place, like he wants to start teething. He has been trying to talk for a while and now realizes he can scream. He is almost sitting up unassisted, but he leans forward and rolls over thinking it is the funniest thing ever. So he laughs at himself!

Angie - posted on 01/28/2010

my lil boy is just starting to really try and roll over, i love to encourage him,, he can sit up on his own for a few seconds,,, he loves jumping in his jumper like a wild man,, he has been able to hold his bottle since he was 2 months old,, but i dont let him since that can cause ear infections... he loves getting body massages and taking baths,, when i nurse him he is always blowing raspberries on my boobs lol,, he talks all the time,, and he is starting to giggle more frequently,,, he can do tummy time for up to 20 min without getting fussy, and he started sleeping all the way through the night around 3 1/2 months he sleeps about 7-9 hours in a row,, but once in awhile he might wake up once in the middle of the night,, only take 1-2 naps during the day, and wants to play all the time,,,, he sounds like he knows how to say hi because we say that to him all the time,, but im not sure if he actually is..lol

My 5 1/2 month old thinks he's pretty clever, he's been properly rolling for a few weeks now & at first scared the crap outta me when I first discovered he likes to sleep on his tummy! He loves jumping & babbling in his jolly jumper, sticking everything in his mouth, grabbing anything I have in my hands. Just about sitting up with no help, trying very hard to crawl & gets frustrated when he can't reach something. He's been eating carrot, sweet potato & apple a few times a day with his cereal for a couple weeks now...was sleeping 6 hours every night but now it's become a little randon, I think teeth aren't far off. His belly laughs just crack me up & seeing him get better at something everyday is awsome!

Anastasia - posted on 01/28/2010

She holds her own bottle which is a big help! She constantly rolls over front to back and back to front. She eats EVERYTHING! her hands, toys, my hands, my shoulder, daddys face haha. she is half crawling...more like scooching around. i'm workking with her to sleep through the night. some nights are successful others aren't. no teeth yet...but i'm waiting!

My David rolls both ways and can sit for a long time without support.He can support himself on both hands and knee and then leaps forward in an attempt to crawl. He can babble, scream and laugh. Just introduced solids,he is not a heavy eater though. No teeth yet.

Joy - posted on 01/28/2010

My girl loves rolling both ways, but scares herself if she leaves her playmat. She can hold a bottle, laugh and pass things back and forth between her hands. She also likes standing with support and 'dancing.' She doesn't have any teeth yet and her babbling isn't recognizable words, but we're also working on sign language and she's recognizing some of the basic words. She has slept up to 8 hours at night, but not on a consistent basis. She does not like being by herself for too long.

Emily - posted on 01/27/2010

My little girl can roll both ways, sit by herself, find her passifier and get it back in her mouth most of the time when she is awake. She can sit up for a few minutes by herself and stand holding her own weight, but I stay so if she starts to fall I get her before she gets the floor. She has no teeth yet and tries to do everything I do.

My 5 month old little girl stands when i hold her hands, rolls everywhere (lol), sits up a little by herself then wobbles to the side, she sometimes hold her bottle when she feels like it and dribbles, bites, chews and babbles constantly (:

My daughter has been rolling over both ways since 3 months old. She had started to hold her bottle at 7 weeks old. Now she holds it 100% of the time (when shes not being lazy). She sits up on her own. I cant lay her on the floor to learn to crawl, she cries until I pick her up. I stand her on the floor and hold her hands, she walks that way from the living room to the kitchen. Which is quite a distance. I've had her on cereal at 2 months and started fruits at 2 1/2. She is now on stage 2 fruits and veggies. She has a top tooth and a bottom tooth coming in. She chews on anything the can get her hands on.

my Aaliyah is 5 months old she has been saying dada for about 3 weeks now and gets very excited when she says it. She's on solid foods now for about a month and doesnt like the desserts yet. She laughs out loud histerically when her 2 year old sister talks to her and pays attention to her it's the cutest thing. she sits up alone for a while but then starts to go down laughing. She babbles alot but very happy love her to peices. Not rolling over at all yet though.
