tummy time resistant

[magicicada]

about a month ago, sylvia turned over for the first time. that was it until this past friday when h_postmortemus put her on her tummy on the bed. the softer surface has inspired her and she's turned over a total of 9 times now. the last three were one after another this morning. i think she's got this thing down. we've created a monster! or to be more specific, we are training a previously created monster ;).

i've also been letting sylvia fall while she's sitting up, if it won't hurt her noggin. this has led to some rather alarming advances. she will fall on her side, slump further onto her stomach and then roll over. this leaves her at a dramatically different position than when she started. another time she fell more or less forward and then seemed to fall even further in what seems to have been a primative attempt to move forwards. we are all in so much trouble.

Hehe, actually, you're right. I have taken a rosy impression of my child's life. I think it's because the first few months of my child's life was soooo traumatic for me. I simply wasn't ready to cope with it all yet. So as time went on, my outlook improved dramatically, and I'm sure that plays into my positive feelings now.

And I know what you mean about hyper. My son is incredibly hyper. We used to go to parties, and the other parents would say, "You're son has a lot of....energy." LOL

Take care!

Hehehehe...yeah, those first few months are a whopper aren't they?

I completely sympathize with the, "You're son has a lot of...energy." quote. I get it frequently along with, "What a happy baby!" while Anna practices her screaming and hears the echos and gets excited at the looks people give her. I whisper, "inside voice sweetie." It does not work.
