It bothers me when there's this intense expectation for babies to meet milestones, yes I get that meeting milestones is important, but not all babies are the same. They develop differently, some grow quicker than others. Babies meeting milestones all at the same time is like expecting them all to grow up and become doctors.

exactly! Elliot is just now starting to grab toys and roll over. He still can't completely sit up on his own, where as I have a friend and her baby was holding her bottle and sitting up around 4 months @rylees_mommy @abeals04

Yes the milestone thing I feel just adds extra stress on a mother because some may feel that something is wrong with their baby because they aren't doing what they are suppose to be doing yet, my baby was already walking up her daddy's chest with help at 2 weeks 😂😂😂 @vb95

it's stressed me out a lot, Elliot is going to physical therapy to help him hold his head up better. We didn't do a lot of tummy time when he was younger because he has such bad reflux, we were just trying to get him to gain weight and every time we would do tummy time he would spit up like crazy. @rylees_mommy

Yes it stressed me out sooo much and I'm trying to get my baby to gain some weight also she already eats table food if I chew it for her but she still soo petite she still has booty room in a size 3 diaper and she is 6 months , but she eats so much 😞 so I feel like I'm not feeding her enough but she eats SOOO MUCH lol... My mom said I was that little that I was in kindergarten still wearing infant (12-24month) clothes so I try not to let it stress me so much @vb95

Yeah you can't focus on it too much, I try to tell myself that. Elliot is almost in size 3 diapers, the 2's are getting a little snug. It took him a long time to gain weight @rylees_mommy

Yeah the doctors say she is a perfect size for her percentile since she was a petite/tiny baby when she was born
