my daughter didn't crawl til almost a yr and didn't walk til after 2 they send since her first year was so hard ti put her back and she had low muscle tone . don't worry just love him and keep working and he'll get it. --Previous Message-- : Hi all - my son has PRS/Stickler Syndrome and : will be 6 months old next Monday, March : 17th. He is very big (no feeding/weight : issues), has incredible leg strength : (prefers to stand to anything else), has : age-appropriate fine motor skills (using : both hands, can grab objects), but he has NO : interest in moving (such as rolling) or : sitting. I am less worried about his : sitting, b/c he is not even 6 months yet and : he can do it for about 10 seconds (he just : doesn't really want to) - I am most : concerned that he is not rolling over. : : At 3 1/2 motnhs he flipped front to back : effortlessly, but now HATES to be on his : tummy and really isn't even trying to flip : anymore. Even though he can hold his head : up well, he gets "sad" and kind of : just lays his head down instead of looking : around, reaching for things, or trying to : move/roll over. He loves being on his back, : and is in love with his toes, but has no : desire to try and roll over back to front - : he goes on his side and that's it. : : In my heart of hearts, I don't think there's : a major problem, but I keep reading about : hypotonia (low muscle tone) on this site, as : a condition associated with PRS and I really : don't understand the correlation. : : Can someone explain why low muscle tone is : associated with PRS and also let me know : what you think about my specific concerns? : He goes to doc for 6 month well visit on : 3/18, so I will bring it up then, but would : love your input and/or insight. Thanks! :
