Falling behind!!!
I feel like a crappy mom. My baby girl had her 9 month check up today, and shes lagging in the solid foods and motor skills department.
She gets some solid food, but she looses interest quick. I try about 2-3 different foods each meal( ones shes already had) new foods get a few days to make sure no allergies come up. I just keep trying, but she really doesnt eat to much solids...like under 1/4 cup per meal.
For her motor skills, shes not yet crawling, she sits up, but doesn't get in the sit up position on her own, stands for a few seconds, but doesn't pull to stand yet.
Shes also only 15lbs 15oz and 25.5 inches. I'm small, but feel like shes behind in that department too.
I feel bad and try not to compare, but its really stressing me and making feel like im doing something wrong. I see all these wonderful babies on here excelling, and I'm just wondering what im doing thats holding my baby girl back. Any helpful tips or advice would be appreciated! I've talked to the pediatrician, and they gave an activity sheet and some tips, but im already doing most of that.
