Any 8 month olds NOT crawling

Please reassure me that I am not alone! 

DD is the only one in her playgroup not crawling. She has been rocking for almost 2 months now. I feel like she spends most of the day on her stomach and all she does is rock back and forth and falls forwards and "sky-dive" on her stomach. I put all her favorite toys out of reach and she tried to get them sky-diving and then just gives up laying her head on the floor. :(

 I just feel like I have a kid completely unmotivated to get moving. I know each kid is different but how can you not compare! 

Oh ya she has been sitting unassisted since 5.5 months.

    My DD doesn't crawl. An 11 month old in DD's play group just learned to crawl.

    My DD doesn't crawl either, she actually just started to rock back and forth.

    My DD doesn't know how to crawl on all fours, she can army crawl though.  8 months is still young to have that expectation on her.

    I know lots of babies who are 9 and 10 months and just learning how to crawl.

    I wouldn't worry at all.

    My baby doesn't crawl...she rolls to where she wants to go.  Sort of funny top watch her since she's pretty determined to move around.

    THIS! She bangs her head all the time because she is a rather violent roller! Ha!

    DD doesnt crawl either. She doesnt roll around either. I think she is just lazy. I know she can roll because Ive gone in to get her out of her crib and she will be on the opposite side than she was when she went to bed but Ive never seen it. Im excited for her to crawl!
