Lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-753015 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 15:09:45 +0000 Springtime 753015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: I have never heard of it either! My LO just turned 1 as well, guess we better get caught up lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752852 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 14:15:13 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 752852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter is almost 12 months and does it (we say "big girl!!!!!") But I don't remember when she started. Maybe 10.5 months? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752776 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 13:43:30 +0000 skibobrown 752776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter (13 months) throws her arms up in the air to tell me she wants to be picked up, but she never did "so big". Then again, I really rarely try to play that game with her, so I think I just haven't given her the opportunity to catch on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752761 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 13:39:46 +0000 HLK208 752761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>E started at 8 months but she is kind of over it now lol. At 11 months, she claps to patty cake though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752736 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 13:31:30 +0000 LuLu Mom 752736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: @mediagirl: @mrskc: @littlek: Sorry! I thought it was a known thing, I should have described it better in my post! I remember always doing it in the bathtub as a child, and that's how my mom would get us to get out of hte tub without a fit. </p> <p>She would say "How big is J?" and I would throw my arms up and she would lift me out! Right now I say "E is SOOOO Big" and then tickle her under her arms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752595 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 12:40:29 +0000 banana 752595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd say anytime between 8-11 months? We do a korean version where the baby puts their hands on their heads to form a heart shape (hard to describe! haha) whenever you say "I love youuuuu". My dd just recently started doing this at 9 months and we die every time she does it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752494 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 12:02:43 +0000 runsyellowlites 752494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow I had never heard of this! Guess we should start with P seeing as she's already behind. Eek! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752442 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 11:47:30 +0000 MamaG 752442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our LO really learned this and started to do it on demand at about a year. I distinctly recall my mom visiting for LO's 1st birthday and LO responding to my mom's request for "so big". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752440 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 11:46:44 +0000 winniebee 752440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: eventually baby starts raising his arms when you ask "how big is baby?" cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752437 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 11:46:22 +0000 mediagirl 752437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmmm...we haven't started doing this with our lo yet. I guess we should start if she should be able to do it by 11 months... :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752436 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 11:45:46 +0000 littlek 752436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: awww.. i get it.. very cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752435 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 11:45:08 +0000 mrskc 752435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm wondering what this is too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752434 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 11:44:48 +0000 winniebee 752434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: you ask "how big is Johnny" and then say "Johnny is sooooo big!" and raise their arms at the same time. But use your baby's name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752413 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 11:38:05 +0000 littlek 752413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>what's so big? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752408 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 11:37:26 +0000 winniebee 752408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My wonder week app said around 11 months (whatever wonder week ends about at that time). </p> <p>My son is 11.5 months and doesn't do it yet though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752397 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 11:33:40 +0000 LuLu Mom 752397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2PeasinaPod: I'm so glad I'm not the only one clueless. We clap too and she loves it &amp; I can see her little brain trying to figure these things out, so exciting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752384 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 11:30:11 +0000 2PeasinaPod 752384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LuLu Mom: I'm so curious to know this too! We do this with LO and try to get him to clap his hands. He loves it as well, so it will be exciting when he does it on his own! He was 7 months last Friday! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-for-so-big#post-752375 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 11:28:33 +0000 LuLu Mom 752375@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I should probably know the answer for this, but what age did your child start doing 'So Big!" on their own? I have been doing this with LO for a few months (7 months tomorrow) and hold her hands, but I was wondering when she will throw her arms up on her own when we say it? This is her favorite game :) </p>
