My daughter Ellenie is going to be 5 months tomorrow. She has big smiles and can roll over from tummy to back. She pulls her binkie out of her mouth and can almost get it back in. She reconizes her name, and follows you around with her eyes. She sleeps all night long with out waking up, and eats 6oz every bottle feeding. She also has been eating solid foods for a bit now. Sweet peas are her favorite! She is such a happy baby and only cries when she is sleepy , hungry , has to stop eating to burp, or tummy time.
I feel like she is meeting most of her milestones, but she can't really sit up at all on her own, and she refuses to let me do tummy time with her at all. I am really worried about this. I know she should be used to laying on her stomach by now and trying to push off , and building muscles to crawl, and sitting herself up, but she just screams till she turns red in the face when I put her on her stomach. I've tried so hard to get her to enjoy it. I put toys down for her to play with. I lay her on bright patterned blankets. I lay her in front of the laptop with a fun kid show on (this seems to be the only thing that almost works!)
I just feel like I am not investing enough time into this tummy time skill, or maybe I am missing a key factor in it or something!
Anyone have any suggestions?
Ellenie's first Halloween went great though! We all matched, and we went trick or treating!

Her Sashimi costume was the cutest thing I have ever made...
I am never making a costume by hand again!
