Anyone else's 5 months old desperate to crawl but are not quite strong enough so they're super frustrated? I don't know if I should leave him be when he gets frustrated or try and help him some way 🤷

Question

Answer

My 5 month old started crawling. I want him to slow down. If he gets frustrated I help him a bit. 🤗

Answer

Yes! Except mine hasn’t figured out that his arms are helpful so he drags his upper body and launches with his legs... lol

Answer

My daughter gets sooo fustrated but is trying sooo hard. She’s almost crawling. I’m not going to rush it 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

How freaking cute. 
My little girl is showing no interest at all. My first baby, my son, was just like this. He was so ready to crawl at 6 months. He ended up crawling around 7.5 months and walking at 9 months ☺️ He’s 3.5 now and still a wild one ☺️

Answer

My daughter is 5 months and i leave her. It sounds harsh but metaphorically not literally i let her bleed. Lol like feel the burn. After a few days of fustration she went from throwing her arms around to pushing them and then to finally figuring out how to get her knees under her by then end of the week she learned to thrust herself forward. If i picked her up when she was

fustrated she wouldnt have gotten to the point of figuring it out on her own. It's almost like when you let them self soothe. 
Obviously if she started real crying i picked her up. She's my precious princess of the world but fustrated cry she stayed. If you know what i mean.

Answer

It’s so hard cuz it’s painful to watch them struggle and get frustrated. Especially with those big beautiful eyes staring up at you... if it’s possible I would leave him. Unless he is really crying like upset, then scoop him up and cuddle him. But he will absolutely learn faster if you let him figure it out. Go with your gut instinct Mama. Listen to advice but always trust yourself. 💕

Answer

My 6 month old goddaughter absolutely hates being on her stomach. She wants nothing to do with trying to crawl. She was a lil premature tho. She'll get there.
