Parents. Dont stress too much about your childs development. Modern parents turn this into an idol. Youre doing fine.

[@freedomflame3475]

Love seeing two devoted parents wanting the best for their baby and putting in so much effort for them and even sharing tips together with other parents. It warms the heart. Wish every child on earth had that.

[@tmlee123]

Yes this was amazing and insightful. I'm so grateful that they shared this.

The rocking horse was a great core workout for mommy!!!🤣

[@CarnahanFam]

It sure is! Win win for everyone 😂

[@PcYourLife]

@@CarnahanFam i did this and my stomach mucsle got hurt the other day 🤣🤣

[@adelinaarif7375]

I can't do the rocking horse, should do some practices on my core first 😂

[@tinaclark4658]

I worry about shaken baby syndrome. Im not saying she's doing anything wrong. I am just paranoid about moving my baby around too fast and hurting her brain.

Thank you so much for the activity suggestions! Trying to keep my 4 1/2 month old on track. You both seem wonderful and your baby girl is so precious! Also, I recognized the song at the end from a list of songs to make baby laugh. Never worked on my son, but it made me smile hearing it here, Haha!

Hey guys! this was great! baby girl Norah is just over 5 months old, and doing all of these, except the tummy time push up, but she'd getting htere hahaha. I wasn't aware that the other things were milestones to look out for so, so thank you for this video!

[@CarnahanFam]

Our milestone series has milestones for each month and once complete will feature birth to 24 months! So many fun things for you and Norah to do together! Thank you so much for being here! ❤

[@bettinabalmer5614]

Good quality of video. Though the title "milestones" is delusive for as there are shown lots of activities that most babys perform AFTER 5 months (milestone=50% of babys handle it)

[@CarnahanFam]

There definitely is a range at which babies acquire these skills! You're very right!

[@cadlac1533]

Soooo adorable

[@CarnahanFam]

Thank you! ❤️

[@amandanovita5747]

Thankyouuu❤️❤️😘😘😘

I like to to the dropping in and grabbing in bath tub with rubber duck. He loves it. We oreeeed different animals earlier this week.

[@bonniescarlett2915]

My baby will be 5 months on Wednesday Nov. 9th and he is just learning to sit up in people arms

[@charlottebrown2418]

Hi! My baby is 5 months old and doesn’t roll over yet he still hates tummy time what would you suggest ?

[@CarnahanFam]

Hi Charlotte! To be honest, our little girl had pretty bad reflux and hated tummy time too! The best thing you can do is offer tummy time in small doses as often as your baby will tolerate. It helped us to switch up tummy time so it was less of a fight. Doing tummy time on your own belly so baby is looking at you is a SUPER good one! Laying down right next to baby so your face is right near theirs and singing songs and making engaging facial expressions can help as well! It's tricky but even if you just try for a minute one day and then maybe a minute and 5 seconds the next day, ever time you'll see progress! Sometimes it helps to allow baby's tummy to settle after eating as well before trying tummy time! Sending you and your sweet 5 month old hugs! ❤️

[@elyselusk3604]

My 5 month old cant do any 9f that. I feel like a total failure. I have him physical therapy for torticollis. I hope that is all that is slowing him down.

[@A.J.8.8.8]

You're not a failure hun ❤️

[@italiano86]

Baby girls seem to meet milestones faster than boys just from what I seen with my kids.

[@inthemerde]

is it safe to sit up the baby? my wife and I don't agree on this. She gets angry when I do our 5 month old sitting exercises.

[@isaiahperry4539]

My daughter turned 5 months the 21st but still can’t sit up on her own at all ☹️

[@nashwa3858]

Adorable baby. She just look like a girl copy of my son. . He is 3 months old

[@CarnahanFam]

Thank you so much! I bet your little guy is just a cutie! 🥰

[@BabyDr4gon]

I just wish we had carpet in our house. Ugh. It would be sooo much easier for baby play time

[@JustNeese]

Me too! We just use sheets and blankets and a weighted blanket with the little beads in it to make the ground softer.

[@fairylifebahrain2452]

Trying the human rocking horse now

[@sarikatimmi]

wow she sits!

[@breebee28]

Is her name Ainsley?! That’s my daughters name 😊

[@katythepsychiclady2342]

My baby is 5 months, she gets so mad during tummy time, idk what to do😢

Lil sis was born became an uncle got forced to watch this

[@amisharaichand6167]

What u give to ur love one she is chubby pls help me to make my lo healthy and chubby

[@mgraziella21]

I do not recommend human rocking horse if u don't have a strong core ..nearly gave my lil one whip lash 😥

[@Thesparklefashion]

I just want to quit my life knowing I’m just a looser and there is such a perfect family! I feel worthless.

[@jennisadentertainment6099]

My baby is 5 month old but cannot sit nor has head balance

[@CarnahanFam]

Hi there! Tummy time is a great way to help your baby gain that head control. Sitting up will come after they have that skill.Keep up that tummy time as much as you can and it'll come! If you continue to have concerns, I would definitely bring it up with your pediatrician! Sending hugs your way! 😊

[@JennyBunny240]

Rocking horse. I'm 40 going on 41. 😂. That's a no from me 😢😅

[@mayfarouk7219]

[@CreativeCat879]

Human rocking horse- not possible for me c section 😞

[@merrimankaylynn]

Sleeping through the night is ot a milestone and def not the average for that age

[@pmvura01]

Something weird in this video. Its like she is raising a baby from Superman's planet.

[@CarnahanFam]

Haha, Superman is just one of the phrases we use to reference a developmental milestone pose for baby arching her back and lifting her arms and legs! Though with the strength this girl has, sometimes I wouldn't doubt she's from Krypton 😂

[@arianas838]

Great video my little sister is gonna be 5 months old just tmr! She isn’t sleeping in a crib yet tho (she has one) should she be? Also how can I know if she is left handed or right handed!

[@CarnahanFam]

Hi Crystal! Thanks for being here and supporting our channel! The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends babies should sleep in their own crib or bassinet in the same room as the parent for the first 6 months or year and never bed sharing for SIDS prevention. We personally place our babies in their cribs in their own room with baby monitors to monitor their breathing as soon as we feel comfortable to ensure better sleep for both mama and baby! 💞 As far as left & right handed goes - that preference will show much later in the next several years! Babies will typically switch off for quite some time so don't worry about which hand the baby will prefer for now 💞

[@raymondsonmigueltv7150]

My 5 months old baby boy cannot sit up straight alone yet. How come? ☹️

[@CarnahanFam]

That's okay Mama! The best thing you can do is give your baby more practice strengthening their core! Help them to sit up with support and strengthen that core and balance! The gross motor activities here will help your baby to do that! Sending you hugs Mama! 🥰

[@CH-qj6hr]

Babies all develop at different speeds☺️ my 5 month old cannot sit up unassisted yet either. They will get there!

[@raymondsonmigueltv7150]

@@CH-qj6hr glad to know that my baby's not alone. 😊

[@A.J.8.8.8]

It's expected to be between 7 and 9 months for bub to sit unassisted, so no stress 😊 still plenty of time.

[@redanvoo]

Babies at 5 months aren't designed to sleep through the night.

[@Lizzifer7]

“Through the night” at this stage means a 4 or 5 hour sleep.

[@JennyBunny240]

Mine going to bed at 6.30 and waking 1 for feed then about 5 or 6 for a feed. He is 5 months today

[@WinterSSF]

My baby is 5 months old and he sleeps from 8pm-6am no waking up. Give him a bottle at 6am. He’s back to sleep until 8am

[@NeNe5798__]

my babygirl is 5 months she goes to bed at 7:30/8 wakes up around 1 or 2 am then is up by 6/7 am

[@rabiaalaroui]

Mine sleeps 7:30pm to 5:30am

[@petrakejikova6877]

Shy is she sitting???

[@petrakejikova6877]

You guys need to use google before putting a baby to sit by yourself

[@CarnahanFam]

Our baby had severe reflux and sitting was the best position for her as recommended by her pediatrician, her developmental specialist and what we found as her parents best fit her needs. Each baby is unique in their journey of development and we trust that we always have and always will continue to do what is best for our kids. You have the choice to do that with your kids also! Not to mention sitting is developmentally appropriate for her age range. Best wishes to you and your family ❤️

[@ninaaniebergingco1684]
