What Is It? Marfan syndrome is a genetic (inherited) disorder that affects the body's connective tissue. Connective tissue is the tough, fibrous, elastic tissue that connects one part of the body with another. It is a major part of tendons, ligaments, bones, cartilage and the walls of large blood vessels.
Your baby's first step toward mobility isn't actually a step at all -- it's a roll. When she's about 2 or 3 months old, she may flip from front to back. During tummy time (which you should supervise), your baby may lift herself into a push-up position and then start to rock back and forth or kick her feet. Then, if she's strong enough, those movements will send her rolling over.
Flipping from back to front often takes until around 5 months because it requires more coordination and strength. At that point, some babies take up rolling as a means of rapid transport. You don't need to coach your baby to roll, though; just make sure she has a safe place to try it out if she wants to.
