He rolls from back to front but not the other way even though he is extremely mad about being on his belly. He also shows no interest in crawling. I sit him on the floor with toys I know he wants just out of reach and he just "babbles" at them after making a few attempts to reach them....I'm not sure if this is normal or not.

Just an idea off the top of my head. Can you put him on his belly, then position one of his legs to support him in a partly turned-over position, and keep moving it, step by step, to tip him farther and farther, until he goes onto his back? He might get the idea from that. But as others say, don't push him, he'll figure it out sooner or later.

Every baby is different, my son, crawled, and walked later than his other peers. Some babies never crawl, they go straight to walking. My son did a little "scoot" which of course a month later he started crawling. Babies tell you when they are ready, but sometimes you have to "help" them, I don't mean force it because they definitely won't want to do it., but just kind of show him what his legs can do. If he wants something bad enough he will find a way to get it eventually, pretty soon when he is crawling you will sit down again..good luck.

Just keep giving him belly time, he'll roll over when he's ready. Give him the opportunity to do it at least once every day, he'll get it eventually :) Every baby develops in their own time.

my son didn't craw alot. it's good your watching your baby very carefully, remember god and his cherubiums are in your baby guiding him. if your baby needs something wich will not harm him, give it to him. play with your baby alot, pick him up alot, show your son how happy you are with him and how much you love him. if your baby get's angry about being on his belly help him. if your not sure what to do look in the yellow pages or phonebook for telephone nurse or call a hospital.

babies develop at their own pace. guidelines for when babies do things are just that, guidelines, they can do it before or after the guidelines say they can. talk to your babys doc to be sure, but be patient it will happen when it does.
