Does your toddler stumble & fall a lot?

in Success after IF

Cal's been walking for a few weeks now and all of a sudden in the last couple of days, he's been stumbling & falling a lot.  It concerns me a bit, as he had been very solid on his feet for some time now.  He's been wearing a different pair of Robeez from what he normally wears, and they are well-used (from his cousin).  He's worn them before, but not since he's been walking.  But they are exactly like the other pair he wears all the time - same size and everything.  If it were a more fitted shoe I might think that the sole or arch had worn down, and that was causing a problem, but you know Robeez...they're just glorified socks. 

Just wondering if this is normal?

    Both of my children didn't get stable on their feet until at least 2 or so months after they started walking....and even NOW they still stumble and fall.  I really don't think its ANY cause for alarm at all what so ever.  I would say if had been walking for months and months and months and then boom starts falling a lot, maybe then.  But not now.

    Aaron has been walking since 11 months and he falls all the time still.  He'll trip or not watch where he's going and fall.  I don't know what the deal is either, I just think it's natural.

    Okay, thanks girls.  I mean, I don't expect him to not fall at all - after all, this is all new to him.  It just seems odd that all of a sudden in the last couple of days he's stumbling & falling noticeably more than he was before.

    From my experience at work, it can be normal and it could also mean an ear infection.

    Yes, she's got bruises all over her knees, whenever she stumbles, she goes right into a kneeling position. :(

    Kira still falls quite a bit and she's been walking since Oct. '08!  Granted it's less now, but I'd say she fell quite a bit the first 6 months that she walked.  She could run in circles forever, and then later while slowly walking fall out of nowhere. :)
