Dear u mean 4 months right?

@@paulfavor7347 It is different from child to child, in what pace they develop. 14 months is a little behind the curve, but it sound like there is some development now.

I m really worried my 8 months has not crawl yet

hope it helps my 10 months girl who is not crawling yet

My 8.5.month isn't crawling either but my cousins baby who is only a week older is crawling really well. Makes family gatherings sad because I feel like I'm somehow letting my son down.

Thank u 👍😀👶

Thanks

Thank you for the comment, that was nice of you 👍😀👶

Thank you so much for the comment♥️👍

OMG SAME I wanted my sister to crawl and she’s almost 7 months

Did this help

@@annapirhofer7960 it did actually! He's now up on his knees on his own rocking. We're not crawling yet but we're almost there. It really helped alot more on carpet. We have wood flooring throughout our house except bedrooms. He does much better on carpet than the wood floors.

Oh yay! How did you start the exercises? My daughter sounds exactly the same as your son did.

@@annapirhofer7960 i just had him on his stomach and I had one hand under his chest to keep him up and he more just kinda hovered and moved as if he was crawling and so I just moved him at the pace he was moving his arms until he got to the toy he wanted and I'd set him down and he could play with it. At first I'd also have a hand on his stomach to help him keep his hips up too. He got a good feel for it it seems like. In just a little over a week he started pushing up on his hands and knees by himself. I tried the blanket method but it didn't work very well for us.

@@sheah4854 👍 thank you so much! About to start working on it. Wish us luck!

Thank you for the nice message 👶💪😀👍

Yes, practice the standing on all fours position. First over your leg, then with out support. But moving backwards is often the sign of babies being close to crawling, try to put something interesting in front of her, this might help her get motivated to move forwards.

Thank you ♥️👶

Great that you can use the activities 👍👶😀

You're very welcome! We are glad we could help. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out. Enjoy these precious moments with your baby! 😊💕 #ParentingJourney #BabyMilestones

We do NOT agree in your statement “the longer he is stationary the better”. If you can encourage your baby to move and have fun while exploring the possibilities of the body. The you are doing a great job as a parent.

@@BabyExercises ok. thanks for the input. I'm referring to the fact that we were not ready for a 2 month old child to be mobile and needed more time to get our heads on straight and baby-proof our home.

@@BabyExercises also we aren't seeking your validation on whether or not we are doing a great job as parents. You are NOT very good at this. Learn basic etiquette.

The best activity for this, is to put your baby over your thigh and let your baby get a feel standing of being on all fours with support from your thigh. As your baby gets use to this, move your baby further down your leg.

Thank you for your feedback ❤️

Did it work

@@BabyExercises what should I do if my baby doesn't move her hands or her legs when I do the exercise she just turned 7 months today

Good idea, remember to have fun while you do the exercises 😀

t's always a pleasure to hear that my advice has been helpful. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. Wishing you and your little one all the best! 🌟👶 #Parenthood #BabyDevelopment"

Try to get someone to push her feet like in step one but one foot at a time

It's wonderful that you're engaging in these exercises with your 10-month-old! Each baby develops at their own pace, and it's great to see her exploring different movements. It's not uncommon for babies to encounter some challenges when learning to crawl. Here are a few tips that might help: 1: Patience and Practice: Keep providing her with plenty of opportunities to practice crawling. Sometimes, it takes a little time for babies to build the strength and coordination needed for this movement. 2: Motivation: Use her favorite toys or objects to motivate her. Placing a toy just out of reach can encourage her to move towards it, which can help improve her crawling skills. 3: Supportive Environment: Ensure that the floor is safe and comfortable for her to practice on. Carpet or a soft play mat can be more inviting for crawling. 4: Tummy Time: Continue with tummy time as it helps develop the muscles needed for crawling. You can also use a rolled-up towel or pillow under her chest to make it easier for her. 5: Cheer Her On: Encourage and praise her efforts. Your enthusiasm and positivity can boost her confidence and motivation. Remember, every baby is unique, and she'll reach her milestones at her own pace. The most important thing is that she's exploring, learning, and growing. You're doing a great job as a parent by being engaged and supportive during this important stage of her development! 😊👶💕

Good idea :-)

The different play exercises are not meant to be carried out over a few a days. As a parent you have to decide how far your baby is in the crawling progression and find the exercise you find will fit your baby. Make sure the progression you choose is not to hard, as time spend with your baby should be fun 👍😀💪 It is individual differences that decide how fast your baby progresses and at what age they progress, it can take months for babies to learn to crawl, but creating a learning environment where your baby can progress will get them get there quicker.

We are glad you found our activities useful 👍👶😀

Great stuff 👍💪👶

Some babies skip crawling, and start walking. But 7 months is very early, maybe try out some the other exercises we in our app before starting you guys go to walking. This will strengthen his overall motor skills and so he is ready to walk and maybe crawl.

Tummy time is important, but it is also important that you don’t force it on your baby. So this is always a hard one to solve. My best suggestion is that you try some of the tummy time activities we have presented in the video, and you will find even more in the app. When you do the activities try hard to make it fun and thereby a good experience for your little one.

Well done!

Do not worry, it will come. If you download our app you will find a few videos on how to teach baby to rollover.

@@BabyExercises thankyou my baby is 9 months now and she can easily roll over now on her own and she likes sleeping on her side. Thankyou for assurance and the exercises you teach us.

Ab chalne laga apka baby

Sounds like he is on his way, try out some the crawling exercises. But start by letting him stand on all fours over your thigh, this is a great way to learn the “on all fours” position, which is essential for crawling.

You do not have to teach your baby to crawl, everybody is free to do as they feel best. But as with all things here in life, it gets easier to learn new things if you get a little help.

What you will find in the video, are exercises that will help your baby crawl

"You're welcome! Best of luck with the activities for your baby girl. Enjoy the bonding and the exciting milestones ahead! If you have any questions or need more tips, feel free to ask. Happy parenting! 🌈👶 #ParentingJourney #BabyDevelopment"

Always communicate with your baby in your own language. We are multilingual parents, and we have talked to our kids in each our language (Danish and English). They spoke both languages fluently from the age of 4-5 years 🇬🇧🇩🇰 They speak Danish slightly better as we live in Denmark, and all their friends speak Danish.

Only as long as your baby enjoys the activities.

Sounds like she is ready to stand and walk soon👍💪 No need to worry about crawling, some babies skip the crawling milestone and start walking instead of crawling first😀👶

We cannot read Indian, please write in English and we will do our best to help👍😊

Translation "What have you spread on the ground "

No concerns. Your baby is progressing fast, and will probably be crawling within a few months. Your baby is just exploring ways to move in order for her/him to explore new things in life.

@@BabyExercises thank you so much for the reply

Do not worry, we often see that. Your baby will soon be moving forward, the most important thing is that your baby is moving👍👶

Sorry I cannot understand what you have written.

Have patience with her. It will come👍👶

Maybe she skips crawling and goes directly to walking 👍😀👶

How old is your baby boy? Have you tried the baby handstand?

You're very welcome! We are glad we could help. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out. Enjoy these precious moments with your baby! 😊💕 #ParentingJourney #BabyMilestones

Try out one of the many exercises. Give your baby time, it will come♥️👍

Start by training crawling that is the natural progression. But do not worry, some babies skip crawling and go directly to walking 👍💪

Al ain same is the case of my baby he is 10 months old but dont crawl. I m really worried for him

This is something they decide themselves, but if you only put a hand behind one of their feet 🦶, then they will only move forward Using that foot🦶

You have to have him practice standing “on all fours” before you start the exercises in the crawling video👍👶 But do not worry he is still young.

@@BabyExercises thanks for the reply...will try to do these exercises from tomorrow onwards...

Encouraging crawling in a 5-month-old involves gradual steps. Begin with tummy time to strengthen neck and shoulder muscles. Use enticing toys just out of reach to motivate movement. Make sure the environment is safe, and offer support and reassurance during floor time. If crying persists, consult a pediatrician for personalized advice.

Hey Abby, try to download our app. In the app you will find many suggestions to fun games that can help encourage your baby to reach this important milestone. Remember to enjoy the time with your little one😀

Every baby do it on different times dont push ur baby do it just leave ur baby and lets do by itself when he or she wants

@@abcde8913 You do not have to teach your baby to crawl, everybody is free to do as they feel best. But as with all things here in life, it gets easier to learn new things if you get a little help. We agree that one should not push the baby's development - The most important thing is to have fun and enjoy the time spend with your little one.

Yes a crawling baby

Do not worry, it will come, keep doing the Play Exercises we have shared here on RU-vid, and you can find even more play exercises on our app.

You should not worry, he will learn when he is ready. If you download our app, you will find a lot of fun games that can help prepare your little one for crawling. But most important of all, remember to enjoy, because he will get there when he is ready 💪👍😀

You do not need to teach your baby to sit. Put your baby on tummy. Tummy time is important 👶👍😀

We have all tried it, do not worry. Keep trying, some days will hopefully be better than others. Just don’t let it be an issue, remember to enjoy 😊

Babywearing

Every baby has their unique way of exploring movements! At 7 months, variations in crawling styles are normal. The frog-like position and different hand placements are common as they develop strength and coordination. Keep encouraging tummy time and let your baby explore. If you have concerns, consulting your pediatrician can provide personalized insights. Enjoy witnessing your baby's individual journey of development! 🌈👶 #BabyDevelopment #ParentingJourney

Then you should not do the activity. Try some of the other activities in the app or wait for another time to do the activity, then maybe your baby is ready for the challenge 👍😀👶

Progressing from one exercise to the next depends on your baby's individual development. Generally, as your baby shows increased strength, stability, and interest, you can gradually introduce new exercises. Pay attention to their cues and milestones. If they are comfortable and engaged in an activity, you can consider moving on. 🌟👶 #BabyDevelopment #ParentingTips

Do not worry, it will come when your baby is ready.

We do not understand your question?

8-9 months

Congratulations 👍👶

Hey You can try the first exercise in video, this will give your baby an experience of moving forwards.

@@BabyExercises thank you so much 👏

Same thing to my little 5and 3weeks

Same problem here 😁

That's totally natural first they go back than starts going forward just leave baby to do it naturally

On all fours is a fundamental for crawling. Start practicing over a leg 🦵first and then on all fours on their own.

Definitely no need to worry at this age, it will come.

That's perfectly okay! 👶💕 The army crawl is a common early crawling style. Embrace the cuteness and celebrate the unique journey. #BabyCrawling #AdorableExplorer 🚼💚

It's understandable to be concerned, but variations in crawling styles are not uncommon, especially in the early stages of development. Here are some tips: 1. Encourage Symmetrical Movement: Encourage your baby to use both legs equally by placing toys slightly out of reach on both sides during playtime. 2. Provide Opportunities for Strength-Building: Engage your baby in activities that promote strength and coordination, such as tummy time, reaching for toys, and supported standing. 3. Monitor Development: Keep an eye on your baby's progress. If you notice any other signs of developmental delay or if the crawling style persists without improvement, consider consulting with a pediatrician or a pediatric physical therapist for personalized advice. 4. Celebrate Progress: Remember that every baby develops at their own pace, and what's most important is supporting their growth and development with love and patience. Stay positive, and enjoy the journey of watching your little one grow and learn! 🚼💕 #BabyDevelopment #ParentingTips

Babies develop individually- do not worry

It's normal to feel concerned as a parent. Crawling is an important milestone, but remember that babies develop at different rates. Here are some suggestions to encourage crawling: Tummy Time: Increase the amount of supervised tummy time your baby gets. This helps strengthen the muscles needed for crawling. Encourage Movement: Place toys just out of reach to motivate your baby to reach and move towards them. This can encourage crawling. Create a Safe Space: Ensure your home is baby-proofed so your baby can explore freely and safely. Use Crawling Toys: Toys that encourage crawling, such as balls or toys that move when pushed, can motivate your baby to crawl. Model Crawling: Get down on the floor and demonstrate crawling to your baby. Babies often learn by imitating. Patience and Support: Be patient and provide encouragement. Celebrate any attempts your baby makes towards crawling. Consult Your Pediatrician: If you're concerned about your baby's development, speak with your pediatrician. They can provide guidance and ensure everything is progressing normally. Remember, every baby develops at their own pace. While crawling is a typical milestone, some babies skip crawling altogether and move straight to standing and walking. Provide a supportive environment, and continue to engage with your baby in play and exploration. 💕👶

Hey Please do not worry. It is normal not to crawl at 7,5 months, it is great she is trying to crawl, support her in her efforts, and try out some the activities we have shown in the videos 👍😀👶 Remember to talk encouragingly to her while you do the activities 👍😀👩‍👧

@@BabyExercises sure thanks for the reply

Yes you can try these activities.

You have to practise the "On all fours" position with your baby. Take a look at our app. www.babyexercisesapp.com

It's common for babies to have different preferences when it comes to motor development activities. If your 8.5-month-old son is showing an interest in standing and walking in a walker but dislikes tummy time, here are some suggestions to help him with crawling: 1. Gradual Introduction: Start by gradually introducing tummy time in short increments. You can begin with just a few minutes at a time and gradually increase the duration as he becomes more comfortable. 2. Engaging Toys: Place colorful and engaging toys in front of him during tummy time to grab his attention and encourage him to reach for them. 3. Use a Rolled Towel: You can place a rolled-up towel under his chest and arms during tummy time to make it more comfortable for him and reduce any discomfort. 4. Tummy Time Alternatives: Instead of placing him directly on the floor, you can try tummy time on your chest or lap. This can make the experience more enjoyable and comforting for your baby. 5. Mirror Play: Babies are often fascinated by their own reflections. Placing a baby-safe mirror in front of him during tummy time might help keep him engaged. 6. Parental Interaction: Get down on the floor with your son during tummy time. Make eye contact, talk, and sing to him. Your presence and interaction can make tummy time more enjoyable. 7. Encourage Crawling Movements: Place toys just out of his reach during tummy time to motivate him to reach and eventually start crawling. Remember that every baby develops at their own pace so give him time, and it's perfectly normal for some babies to skip crawling and go straight to standing or walking.

It's understandable to feel concerned, but every baby develops at their own pace. At 9 months, some babies may still be working on sitting independently. Keep providing support during playtime to help strengthen your baby's muscles. Remember, each milestone reached is a unique journey for every child. Stay patient and supportive, and celebrate your baby's progress along the way! 🚼💖 #BabyDevelopment #ParentingConcerns

It all sounds pretty normal, so please do not worry. Try out some of the activities, then we are sure she will reach her milestones soon👍 Remember that all activities with your baby should be fun and enjoyable👍👶😀
