muhammad nashwan nasr's milestone

my little tiger was already 5 months in October 2008 and had yet to flip over then.... that was when i started to worry whether he was following his milestone accordingly. i comforted myself by reminding myself that he is one month premature and that i should always refer to his adjusted age than his real age. so...in October 2008 his adjusted age was only 4 months. i let out a sigh of relieve... nothing to worry yet...............

one day, during my post natal operation recovery period.........at 5 and a half (4 and a half based on the adjusted age calculation) he flipped over!!! a perfect flip over, of course after so many days of hard labor!! the next day, he had a low degree fever and lasted for two days. he recovered in no time but then he stopped whatever effort he had put in trying to flip over.

here's recollecting the moments muhammad nashwan nasr reaching his various milestone based on my memory and some pics.....

first smiled? 2 - 3 months
first raised his leg up? 3 - 4 months
first ate rice porridge? 4 months....stopped and resumed at 6 months
first flipped over? 5 1/2 months
first held his milk bottle in his mouth? 5 1/2/months
first rolled over everywhere? 7 months
first sat stable position? 8 months
first clapped hands? 8 months
first crawled? 8 1/2 month
first waved hands? 8 1/2 month
first tooth? 9 months
first drank milk on his own? 9 1/2 months
first pointed at what he wanted? 9 1/2 months
first attempt to climb on mummy? 9 1/2 months
first attempt to raise his bottom? 9 1/2 months

looks like he started to do a lot of things after he was 8 months old....he can do lots of things on his own now e.g. play his toy, etc and i cant reach the camera on time to capture the moments...
