Well I took DS to his osteopath yesterday and he did have some tension on the left hand side of his chest and the muscles all down his left are actually slightly more developed than the right hand side because he tends to favour his left. The osteopath said that the tension in his little pectoral might be the reason he's not bothering to crawl because babies will naturally do what is most comfortable but overall she wasn't concerned either. (This is still partly related to his forceps delivery as well as the way he is moving). She watched him move about and was more inclined to think the same as me - that DS just knows what he wants and he wants to walk. Now, mummy, now!

So DS had a lovely massage from the osteopath (it's very cute, he loves it, every now and again he turns around and gives her a nice big smile!) and we're going back in a month for a follow up.

Sooo...he's just my little individual. Or stubborn like his father.
