I'm finally calling K a crawler and not just a scooter or puller. Today she did a hands and knees crawl in her brace...backwards. I am so pumped! She's really been working on this so much and was just so happy. Up to now she's just kind of pulled herself/scooted along her butt or rolled anywhere she wants to go.
I know this is late for most babies to crawl; the doc said some babies crawl and walk in their brace, some just wait until it comes off. I am so glad K figured it out - she can pull to standing in the brace so maybe she will end up learning to walk in it. I am so glad she's not going to be super delayed.
And for the holy crap moment of the day: time to get the baby gates up!
Re: AW: Crawler!
Ha! We've learned to move when she swings around or rolls, because she kept banging into us with the metal bar on her brace and I was getting beat up!

That is so awesome, go Miss K!
And considering Max was not in a brace and didn't crawl until 15 months, I don't think 10 months is late at all.
I bet you are right and she figures out walking soon enough!
Schedules, shmedules. I know it's hard not to compare your babies to others... Heck, Madelyn was sitting independently at Will's current age and he's not there yet....so I know it's hard not to compare.
But I think it's fantastic K is crawling considering her brace...."late" or not!!!!
