Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Up on all 4's to crawling-how long

LO spent all day getting onto his hands and knees and rocking, every so often he'd be up on his hands and feet.  And while on his tummy he'd pull and drag himself forward a few feet to get to me.  Um.... how long until he is actually crawling?

Re: Up on all 4's to crawling-how long

  • My DD did the inch bug thing for a few weeks. Today was the first day she was able to get up on all 4s and she took off crawling.

  • My little guy was never on all fours but was inch worming all over the house for about 2 weeks then moved on to cross crawling about 2 weeks later. A week after that (this past week) he has figured out how to pull up to standing and climb up the stairs. I really think it is different with every baby. Yours could start tomorrow or it could be weeks. But I can tell you that once they start going it is NUTS. I thought I never sat down before, haha.
  • DD has been pulling herself on her stomach for a month and a half now and is still not "crawling". She gets around everywhere fast though just sliding on her tummy. I think that is her way of getting around and it seems like she won't crawl on her knees for awhile.
  • DD is at the same stage so any info would be greatly appreciated.

  • It took DS 2-3 days to figure it out after he was rocking on all fours.

  • For those interested, there is a video on the blog (link in siggy) of DS on his second day of crawling. He was still learning but you get the idea.

  • Over here we had the rocking, maybe one step forward then fall thing going on for about 3 weeks. In that time DD kinda rolled and pulled herself around where she wanted to go.
  • My daughter has been rocking back and forth since she was 5 months. She is now 9 months and still won't crawl. I am convinced she never will, lol With my boys though, I don;t remember them doing it for long, maybe only a couple days.
  • DS did the rocking on hands and knees for about 2 weeks before he took off crawling.
