How old does your child start to crawl and roll over?

It is so lovely to see and be there in every milestone that every baby of ours have. They are so adorable. Dylan just got bigger and bigger and he was so strong having muscles around his legs and arms. At his 3rd month, he started to roll-over and he really likes to crawl even he has difficulty on it. After some time he was used to it and whenever he was lying, he insisted to roll over and crawl over some colorful things. And I can't leave him for awhile, I am afraid that he might fall from our bed or on the sofa. He doesn't want to be at his stroller all the time because the weather is not good and hot. So I'm planning to clean his crib- which was first owned by is cousin, Kieth. And I believe that putting him on a crib will trigger his growth and make him easy to walk. He is starting to sit all by himself and I am so glad that he is taking it too easy and my father0-in-law said that his ability is advance compare to those babies in my husband's hometown and he is bigger than normal babies, even though he is not a breastfeeding baby. I am really happy to see him crawl and roll-over. How about you, how old does your child start to roll-over and crawl, Is it really amazing- I love to see him crawl!

Oh my! Dylan the incredible is that you? The food supplements you take really did good on him. I am sure he would be a handful when grows a little bigger. e would jump around, goes up and down the stairs. oh well but ye it is really happy to watch our kids during their milestones, Chico is not doing anything yet, except charm us he is too lazy to stand up from lying position and I was teaching him to roll over but he does not want, he just wants to lied down and talk. but he really is charming. I bet Dylan is more bratty nowadaysI may buy a new crib for Chico because the one we have is made of plastic clothe and so hot in there so I was thinking of buying a cheap one made of wood (the one we saw back then, the cheaper ones) so it would be cool, Chico don't like it when it is hot

Kids do things at different times, so you really cannot go by what another child does. However, since you asked I will tell you. My son and daughter were both rolling over around 3 months old. My son started to crawl when he was 6 months old. My daughter the little overachiever started to get into a sitting position from her belly, crawl, and pull to a standing position all in the same week. She was 5 months old.

All babies are different, but many start to roll over around 4 months, sit up by 5 months and crawl by 6 or 7 months. My son was rolling over and sitting up early, but didn't crawl until after he walked. You are right not to leave him on the bed or sofa alone because he could roll right off. Try putting a blanket on the floor and a few toys around him and allow him to move around the room. Move everything that is dangerous for him out of reach and close doors to rooms you don't want him in, like the bathroom. Do this and you will start to see him really develop. Room to move is the best way to help babies develop these skills, so offer many opportunities. Just be sure the environment is safe.
