She is exactly 3 months old and she still doesn’t try to reach and hold toys. She just stares at them. She does however like to have her hands in her mouth but she won’t hold and reach for toys!

Was this supposed to happen by now?

All babies are different… Give it a month or so

My baby kinda started around 3 months, but I think it was more of an involuntary thing.. she is 3 1/2 months and is starting to show more interest in toys.
Her fingers are still her favorite toys too!
She does have a plastic duck at my parents house that she likes to stare at and babble to.. she doesnt try to reach for the duck, just likes to talk to him.

she will do it soon.
dont worry so much. probably in the next week or 2 she’ll surprise you and reach for a toy.
my son started at around 3 1/2 months.
babies put their hands n their mouths. its normal. my son will be 18 months next week and still puts his hands in his mouth.
you seem like a stressed first time mom. try to relax. she will do things when she is ready to. just enjoy her. before you know it she will be crawling and walking and getting into everything.

Oh yeah I remember I couldn’t wait either for Maximus to grab his toys, play with them n bring them to his mouth.. From what I remember he started around 4 months, gosh I remember I took lots n lots of pictures lol.
Your baby will soon start reaching for her toys so have that camera ready ((:

My baby will be 3 months old in a couple days and she is really into her hands as well!! she doesn’t seem to care about toys yet and if I put a toy in her hand she will shake it (don’t really think she realizes she is shaking it just moving her arms) and then will drop it lol… I bet it will happen within a month or so…
Good luck and your LO is cute!

My son (8 weeks today) swats at his hanging toys, but he doesn’t try to hold them.
