Hey Megan,
Lucas is not alone - Liam only rolls from his front to his back. He's been doing this for over a month, with no real indication that he's going to go the other way. He's only just started to reach for things that are lying on his side - up until about the last week he'd have one attempt and then obviously would think "hmm, can't get that, didn't want it anyway" and go back to talking to his feet or the ceiling or his hands. I'm not worried (well only occasionally), cos I think he's so bright & interested in everything, plus he has good strength in other ways, so I think he's just lazy. And one big advantage is that when I put Liam to bed, he stays in place, so I don't yet have to keep getting up to him to unwedge him from the corner of his cot. It can be hard sometimes though, I have a nephew who is 6 weeks older than Liam and has been rolling from before 4 months, and because Liam is roughly the same size as his cousin, I think that some in my family think he's developmentally delayed. But I don't stress too much, cos kids always do things in their own time, and maybe our boys will miss the rolling stage completely & go straight to crawling. And Liam has more sounds than his cousin, blows much better raspberries
so it's swings & roundabouts really.
