Comments on: What’s In A Milestone? https://reztt.com/whats-in-a-milestone/#utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=whats-in-a-milestone A Lifestyle Blog from Eva Amurri Fri, 19 Mar 2021 17:07:45 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0.5 By: Stacy https://reztt.com/whats-in-a-milestone/#comment-49853 Tue, 09 Jan 2018 22:59:52 +0000 https://happilyevaafte.wpenginepowered.com/home/whats-in-a-milestone#comment-49853 I love this post! My son started PT at 6months for torticolis, he has been late to hit every milestone but he did reach them all on his own time!! I was (and still am !) comparing him to every single baby around us but I’m slowly learning to trust my mom intuition and accept that I have a baby who is mellow and will do things when he’s ready! Thank you for being honest, love reading your blog!

I stalk message boards for my daughters birth month (October, 2014) and scope out what other babies are doing. For every baby that’s saying Donald Duck (someone literally posted that the other day, come on) there is a baby who’s still learning to roll over or sit up. And I think the most fasciating thing is how quickly things happen. Our daughter started crawling 3 days after her 9 month birthday and I worried about it everyday for a month leading up to that milestone. I’m certain this worrying will only get worse but maybe we’ll get better at it? xo

Hi Liz, Try your best not to play the comparison game, it will just give you unnecessary stress and pressure! Your daughter will have so many special qualities throughout her life that are different from anyone else's, and that's because you're doing a great job! Focus on what an awesome job you're doing for YOUR baby, and you will feel much better! xoxo EAM]]> In reply to Liz.

He did end up in PT when he was 4 because he couldn’t cross his midline during certain tasks. He had a fabulous OT who worked hard with him every day for a year to develop his tummy muscles and midline crossing and today he is a healthy, strong 8 year old boy. Listening to your gut and trusting your intuition is what makes you a great mama! Keep up the good work 😘

Many glasses of wine were consumed when our son was not reaching the walking milestone. He would crawl and cruise, but no walking. Did two physical therapy appointments where we were assured everything was okay. He had been having a lot of ear infections around this time and after many failed fixes with antibiotics, he got tubes in his ears. The day he got the tubes in he started walking AND running that same day! The ped thinks the ear infections were affecting his depth perception, etc. You just never know!

Hi Lauren, Wow, I can only imagine how frustrating that must have felt, and scary! I'm glad you guys were able to identify the problem! But now do you wish he was back to crawling??? Running may be even scarier...haha ;) xoxo EAM]]> In reply to Lauren Ribelin.

It has really has me thinking. My May 2014 baby was a late crawler. She crawled right at 10 months after I had spent a month of worrying and constantly encouraging her. Everyone told me that babies develop in their own time and that she is just a “late bloomer”. Now we are struggling with walking. She stands by herself and will walk holding onto our hand or behind a push toy, but will not strike out on her own. She will be 15 months on August 10th. Her pediatrician told us at her 12 month well visit, that if she wasn’t walking at 15 months, we “would have cause for concern”. !! Now I feel like I am on a hard deadline. I know she will get it eventually, but after reading your post I will do a little research in case we don’t meet our 15 month goal.
Love your blog and Marlowe is adorable!
