He seems to be pretty average or a little behind as far as most milestones go.

Physical Milestones he's pretty much been right on track. The only area he's really been advanced on is his pincer grip and hand/eye coordination.

He seems to be a bit slower on the Cognitive Milestones. He babbles but still isn't really saying any words at 13 months.

He's been pretty on track with his eating.

Yep! DS is 10 months, loves to eat and has since 4/5 months when we started solids. He's also very physical, sat up, stood and crawled early. HE started saying "mama" and "dada" super early.

But this kid won't hold his own bottle or drink from a sippy, even though he will attempt to spoon feed himself. And he won't clap his hands, though he will give high fives.

I think LO is pretty much right on schedule with most milestones except for some physical. She's 6 1/2 months and still shows no interest in rolling, although she can sit up unassisted for about a minute at a time.

Le sigh. I feel like he's behind in everything but I think my background as an occupational therapist is interfering and plays a huge part in my worry.

At almost 8 months, my LO sits great, can stand at a play table for minutes at a time (but I need to be there to catch him when he WILL fall), holds his bottle and drinks from a sippy, can self-feed small foods like puffs and he rolls when he wants to. He has decent eye-hand coordination and even better eye-mouth coordination (he often brings his mouth directly to food that we are holding)!!

But he doesn't babble, can't transfer positions (lying to sitting, sitting to standing, etc.), isn't close to crawling (wants to but has no clue what to do with his body), hasn't grasped object permanence, doesn't look for things under blankets and such, and he doesn't always respond to his name.

I know babies develop at their own rate and all of this worry is definitely a case of knowing too much for my own good!

C is on track or advanced in all her milestones. She started sitting unassisted at 5 months, babbling at 6 months. She's 6.5 months and well on her way to crawling.

She is more advanced in social and fine motor skills than gross motor skills but she seems to do do fine all around.

LO seems pretty sturdy. Whenever we go for check-ups, everyone always comments on how strong she is. She's had good neck control for awhile now and absolutely loves to stand up and bounce around. But at almost 4 mo, she still has no interest in rolling over, so I'm sure it'll all average out physically.

As for her cognitive milestones, I'm guessing it's about average, but she's really too young to tell.

DS has been ahead physically and behind verbally. DD is only 4 months but by the time DS was 4 months he could sit unassisted.

I think she's developing like the average child, but the pediatrician says she's advanced physically. She is a very strong child. She's too young to tell when it comes to social skills, talking, etc.
