Hey,

I've been trying to post this for months but kept forgetting

DD never. stops.

She's always moving. When she is sitting down her legs and arms are moving. She's like a baby octopus. When she is lying down, she's always kicking her legs. When you carry her she is grabbing your hair, glasses etc. When I lay down with her to get her to sleep she is grabbing at things, rolling around. I have only recently stopped wrapping her to get her to sleep because she'd never settle as she was moving around so much. I now give her the wrap in her hands to play with otherwise I'd be there for hours until she burned herself out.

Lots of people comment on how "high energy" she is. I never really thought about it but watching her over the past 2 weeks - and since DH has been home over the xmas period, he commented and said how he doesn't know how I'm not completely exhausted. She's moving all the time.

Do babies do this? I watch other people's babies and none of them seem to be on the go as much as DD. Surprisingly though, she isn't crawling yet - seems quite happy to sit and just move on the spot LOL.

Is she high energy? Or is this what babies do and I have no clue?
