It's hard not to worry though, isn't it? Like you, I can't imagine that E is ever going to start moving!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1369476 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 09:07:54 +0000 Bookish 1369476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>G just yesterday figured out how to push up on her hands + knees. No planking or pushups here yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1369471 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 09:06:39 +0000 illumina 1369471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cherrybee: S does the crying/swimming thing too until we rescue her because it's obvious she's not going to get anywhere with it! At this rate I don't think she'll ever roll, crawl, sit up etc. She's really responsive to anyone communicating with her though and at trying to "talk" back, so we joke she'll be 1yr old, still lying on her back on the play mat barking orders at us to fetch her this and that!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1369460 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 09:03:51 +0000 Pepper 1369460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@scg00387: Lol oh my gosh... I am not ready for cruising yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1369452 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 09:00:05 +0000 Smurfette 1369452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pepper: I don't remember exactly but at 4 months she was doing planks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1369446 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 08:58:46 +0000 Pepper 1369446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cherrybee: @Smurfette: Yep, like a pushup! With straight arms. C pushes up with his forearms... just not his hands. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1369436 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 08:56:22 +0000 Smurfette 1369436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pepper: Do you mean like a pushup? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1369431 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 08:55:21 +0000 immabeetoo 1369431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>By 7 months he was starting to cruise and amassing loads of bruises - enjoy your safe little cutie :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1369383 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 08:42:32 +0000 Cherrybee 1369383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What does pushing up on hands mean? Is it just lifting the head and shoulders off the ground using the forearms or is it planing we're talking about?? </p> <p>E pushes up on her forearms (and has since about 3 months) but that's as far as it goes! At 6 months, she doesn't roll, doesn't sit unaided and if I put her on her tummy she lifts her arms and legs off the ground and attempts to swim while crying. Sigh! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1369315 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 08:17:08 +0000 illumina 1369315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This thread makes me feel better as at 4mths S has no interest in pushing up onto her hands...she hates being on her tummy with a passion! I see lots of other babies around her age pushing up already so I'm glad to see there are others here whose LO's haven't done it yet so I won't worry so much! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1368909 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 22:58:26 +0000 NurseMommy 1368909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 4 months, but she didn't start reliably rolling until 7.5 months. She'd just push up and get mad that she was on her stomach. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1368758 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 21:47:21 +0000 Pepper 1368758@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swedishfish: That's exactly what C does! Zero interest in being on his belly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1368639 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 20:58:04 +0000 swedishfish 1368639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>R does this every once in a while during tummy time. But she'd rather be on her back so she still tends to roll right over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1368618 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 20:54:10 +0000 Foodnerd81 1368618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>C has been doing this for a while-- since 4-5 months, though obviously she wasn't pushing very high in the beginning. She started sleeping on her tummy around that time so it came together. Still doesn't roll onto her back though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1368612 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 20:52:55 +0000 Ra 1368612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just a week or so ago! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pushing-up-on-hands#post-1368581 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 20:45:55 +0000 Pepper 1368581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When did your LO start pushing up on their hands? LO is almost 7 months and has no interest in this milestone... </p>
