4 month old, first week

4 month old, first week


Your baby may amaze you (and himself!) around this age by rolling over from his back onto his front or vice versa. You can encourage this new ability by placing him on his back and wiggling a toy on the side he usually rolls to. Babies love praise, so congratulate him and smile when he manages to roll. When he's on his stomach, you may find that he sometimes rests from his "head-up" position by putting his head down and drawing his knees up under him so that his bottom goes up. He will practise getting both ends of his body up into the air so that he can eventually achieve the hands-and-knees position he'll need for crawling
