9th month update

Yaaayyyy tenth month has already begun.....
Here is an update on what V has been up to in the ninth month.

A lot of V's mile stones were due to be completed, babies take their own time exploring and trying out new things. You cant really hurry them. And this was the "catching up on the milestone" month :)

V learnt to turn over a little late (almost in the end of the sixth month). And even then he would turn only from his left side. I think that was because I have always slept on that side. Now in the ninth month, he can turnover from both sides and also go from tummy to back position.

He has just started going from the tummy position to sitting position, though it is yet to be perfected.

V can crawl, but doesn't really like it. He started of with crawling in a butterfly stroke style. It was more like dragging, hehehe. But now he can properly crawl and go a ahead a few step at a time. He crawls on the bed, but hates crawling on the floor probably cos its too cold.

He would walk if he could, but its a little too early for that. He loves standing up with the support of my hands and roaming about in the house, but this was giving me a back ache :P So I have bought a simple walker for him. He loves zooming about in the house and I get a little break :)



V still likes pureed food more than chunky foods. He prefers the home made rice cereal to Dal chawal. And at the moment he loves soups. I am in a fix though about breakfast. He doesn't like suji kheer or Dalia and I cannot keep giving soups to him all day long :P So I still have to explore on that front.

I changed V's pediatrician after the recent experience and am pretty happy with her at the moment. She has prescribed vitamin, iron and calcium drops for the next three months to help build his immunity. Will be starting those from today.

So that's about it.. looking forward to the next month  :)
