The oball is an absolute hit with our baby. It was the first toy that she could hold, because it is so easy to grab. Eventually she started playing with it with both hands and feet and it is adorable.
Since its my first time being a dad im trying to consume and learn as much as i can for my princess. Found your channel and im greatful. Thnx for all your help subscribed
@@DadsAnime it depends on the child but its been mostly fun. Lucky our girl did not get sick often and she continues to develop and growing really fast which makes me sad because im having the momemts of a lifetime. But yeah care and love all what she needs
My first son is coming in July and I'm so frikkin excited!!! Daddy brain is already kicking in I'm getting emotional thinking about my kid playing with his first toys.
As a mom of six only toy baby really uses is o ball, a bag of link chains(attach them to anything. and a crib mobile. Most important toy of all is an interactive mom =eye contact
Hello!my baby came 6 weeks early. He is currently 3 weeks 5 days today, almost 2 weeks to his due date. Should i start introducing these toys and activities from now on or from after his due date since his adjusted age will start from then?
Baby is 8 weeks today. The last couple days when I go to change his diaper, I take off his socks and put one sock in each of his little hands. He's working on his hold, nuzzles them to his face, and waves them around while being mama's "helper" ;).
My child loved the tactile book and the baby ball when he was an infant! We got rid of most of his baby toys but we kept those two along with a few others! ❤️
I'm 5 months pregnant and I'm *such a fan* of your channel, and your recommendations have made making my registry so easy! thank you for making this content!
My baby is 10 weeks old and she loooves the high contrast mobile from lovevery. I put it above the changing pad and she can't stop staring at it while I change her.
Thanks alot maam, we are from srilanka 🇱🇰 .this is very helpful..my daughter is 3 and half months. We are doing best parenting because of ur vedeos. We already purchased all of the 0-3 months & 3- 6 months toys. According to ur vedeos we are doing tummy time and burping also. My daughter has good development because of u. My husband also a big fan of u. Thanks again 💖💖
i have a big smile 😃 reading your comments. i have never had children 😢 but i love watching videos of babies. i also love reading comments. i am so happy your daughter has such a caring and loving mummy and daddy. so sweet!
glad to hear the baby gym is a must have! we don't have much yet but do have one. also our baby gym came with a mirror and tactile book so that was great
My three month old seems to have a love hate relationship with his o ball. He really wants it in his mouth now and has no problem getting it to his mouth but there is no part for him to get a good portion in his mouth. He ends up licking/mouthing and yelling at it. Is this frustrating for him or good for his development? I haven't been taking it away but honestly sometimes I think I should so he calms down.
I've found so many good toys and books at consignment stores for such good deals! I just look for things that can easily be wiped down or sanitized. Board books are easy to clean and so are the balls she showed in the video. You might be able to find 5-10 books for the price of one new one
I recommend a Kind of plush toy. It's like a square fabric with a round bubble in the middle. Mine has ears and looks like a bunny. It's amazing because my baby wasn't able to grasp. This she grasps and let's go. Sucks or sniffs it. And she xarries and holds it in her arm. One end of the four is usually under her arm. So she was able to "carry" out and of you pick her up she was able to hold onto it. Now she is 3 months old and keeps grasping it off you pick her up. It was the only toy she had and could manage. She didn't need a baby gym. Just looking around at Christmas decoration was enough. Now at 3 months she has her baby gym and oball. But it was inpatient for me not to overstimulate her
Don't worry too much - you will continue to learning when your little one arrives and that is fine. You can't know everything before your little one arrives and every bub is unique. Just prepare as much as you can and give yourself a little breathing room.
My baby looks just like my wife. The only thing she got from me is my tongue tie, long toes and bad gas. All that said, I couldn't be more happy, my wife is an angel so I know im blessed with this baby girl.
My 5 week old is obsessed with his o ball. We bat it back and forth together. Yeah I know it's probably unintentional on his part but it still blows his mind when he hits it and it moves.
Yesterday my baby started playing with toys at being 5 weeks old. Baby learned how to spin a wheel. Looked to be very interested in it, kept it spinning for a 5 minutes.
Wow thank you for this information! Really looking for something like this. Just the essential toys for my baby as don’t want to pile up again with toys not being used.
Greatly appreciated hi dad love your videos you my go to now learning a lot started watch year ago when wife told me the best news and now baby 3 months gave me lots confidence as a first timer.
Thank you, I didn’t know if I should buy lots of toys at this stage. I’m glad I already had pretty much everything you recommended at this stage only thing I didn’t have was the ball, but she will be fine.
Wow. I admit I'm jealous of you all, Emma & commenters. My baby is 2 months and he screams whenever he sees/lies under the baby gym. We also have other baby toys and he seems to hate everything. He is clearly bored and it gets worse each day. Cuddling, singing, walking outside, eye contact, tummy time... nothing satifies him anymore, it's very exhausting.
Hi Krizia have you checked your spam? I have checked my end and it looks like the PDF was sent to your email. I think it will be in your spam/junk email. Let me know if it isn’t and I will get it sent again.
Hello, nice video...i am already using play gym. But need other toys link...can u pls provide product link from amazon for oball and tactile book...thanks in advance...
Thanks! No problem - here's the oball: amzn.to/3rOKEjG and for the tactile book this book looks ok amzn.to/2Q629xW What you are looking for in a tactile book is crinkle material, different tactile materials, items to pull.
My brother has a 5 month old and she sleeps a lot but when she is awake she cries a lot. my dad (grandpa wanders around the house with her sat forward and that seems to work well). But she is a lot of work! Very cute though. We all love her.
let me know if you have other favourite toys or she newborn toys for Ashley Ashley Ike’s baby gym toys to playing if she two hands up play toys with her
My three month old is getting very frustrated when she’s under her gym when there’s a toy she really wants to put in her mouth, but can’t quite do it, or if she gets a hold of it, she can’t always move it by her face or in her mouth like she wants. It’s getting hard to put her under a few of her gyms without me right by her due to this (I got a few gyms from garage sales for different rooms). I hope she will have better control to do what she wants soon so she’s less frustrated.
She will have a lot more control in a month or 2 and at this point she will be purposefully be able to reach out and play with an attached toy. You could also take the toys off and give them to her to hold while lying under the play gym.
@@EmmaHubbard Thanks, I figured it wouldn’t be too long until she figures it out. I do hand little fabric toys with little hand holds on it and the O ball (which she is definitely better at holding), but she still usually drops it within a minute. How much frustration do you think is healthy for a baby to experience before helping them? Do you have a video about something along those lines? Like she will kind of whine, but usually she doesn’t all out cry, but I try to help her get the toy closer without outright giving it to her so she can learn. But sometimes I’m cooking dinner or something and can’t help her constantly, so I’d just end up putting her in the bouncer or doing something else I know she won’t get frustrated with. Thanks!
Aaa we can go tomorrow or tomorrow morning or tomorrow or Friday morning or tomorrow or Sunday morning or tomorrow or Friday morning or tomorrow or Sunday morning or tomorrow or Friday
Hi Emma,I love your clear concise videos. I am wondering. My baby was born at 28 weeks premature. He is currently 37 weeks( 10 weeks old)and his due date is 8/8 about 2 weeks away. Are his mile stones expected from birth or from his due date?
Hi @Jasmine Samson so glad you are finding the videos helpful! I hope you and your little one are going well! Particularly when the start might have been a little rough for you both! When you are looking at milestones your little one should be achieving it is based on his corrected age not birth age. So it would be his due date. Hope that helps!
Thank you for this video! so helpful, baby is due in June. Where is the oddball you have from? Please send me link if possible, I only see hard ones but I like how the one you have is squishy.
Hi Amara, Congratulations on your pregnancy. Hope everything is going well. I usually get the Oballs from Kmart or Big W in Australia. What country do you live in and I can see if I can find a link?
I got my son's "o ball" with a "my first book" [tactile, farm animal theme] from a Goodwill of all places! [: He just turned three months old Wednesday and I introduced him to it about two months ago, and he's just now paying attention to it when I bring it and the book out ^_^
These videos are great, thank you. Just want to know- my baby is 7 weeks and has severe silent reflux, i have a jungle gym for her, but i can't seem to put her on her back at all as it is really uncomfortable for her. Even with a incliner pillow- is there anything else i can do so she doesn't fall behind on her development?
Hello. Maybe it would be helpful for your baby if you try to keep the flexion in her/his body by keeping the pelvis up with a small pillow or if you keep this flexed position on your legs. It will help your baby to adjust to the gravity and be active. You can give her/him the toy in this position. I think it would a big difference on how he/she focus on the toy if her/his body has the normal flexed position. I hope that you find it helpful.❤️
@@physiotherapy-physio4you Thank you for replying, i am pleased to say that she is 3 months now and i can put her on her back and tummy for short amounts of time- i do try to do it between every nap( if she is not in a to bad mood😂) she does like to sit on my lap and throw herself forward and backwards.
Thanks for watching! Let me know if you have any other favourite toys.
My little ones at this age loved the baby gym

Which baby gyms would you highly recommend?
My babby only started enjoying the gym at 6 weeks she also loves looking out the window
glad to hear the baby gym is a must have! we don't have much yet but do have one. also our baby gym came with a mirror and tactile book so that was great
That is awesome!

Ftm due in august… there are sooo many things to learn … 😭
Don't worry too much - you will continue to learning when your little one arrives and that is fine. You can't know everything before your little one arrives and every bub is unique. Just prepare as much as you can and give yourself a little breathing room.
Should play gym be black and white?
Or is it alright to have colourful play gym
My baby looks just like my wife. The only thing she got from me is my tongue tie, long toes and bad gas. All that said, I couldn't be more happy, my wife is an angel so I know im blessed with this baby girl.
My 5 week old is obsessed with his o ball. We bat it back and forth together. Yeah I know it's probably unintentional on his part but it still blows his mind when he hits it and it moves.
Is it ok to just hang toys from a pikler and put baby under that. Feels like ordinary babygym are used for a very short time.
Yesterday my baby started playing with toys at being 5 weeks old. Baby learned how to spin a wheel. Looked to be very interested in it, kept it spinning for a 5 minutes.
