Is anyone elses 8 month old not crawling or pulling themselves up

My DD is a little over 8 months and she isn't crawling yet. She rolls around but won't go up on all 4's. Also if we stand her up she will hold onto something and stand nicely, but she can't pull herself up on her own. I know she is developing fine but was just wondering if anyone else is going through this.

Brady was 10 months before he crawled, and Luke is no where near crawling yet. I am not worried.

Nope... and not worried. My DS was the same way. I think he was 10 months before he crawled and he walked almost immediately after that.

My daughter was 12 months when she first started crawling on all 4's. 13.5 months when she first pulled herself up on her own. Last night she started walking with her walker for the first time, she's 15.5 months. She still can't let go of things and stand for more than a second or two. She's doing stuff, but just at her own pace.

Hudson is still army crawling and has no interest in pulling himself up which is more of a relief to me to be honest since we have all hardwood floors in our house. It doesn't bother me that much to be honest because the kids babbling and vocabulary are out of this world!

DS is almost 8 months and he isn't doing either of those things. He kind of pulls himself along (army crawl) but won't crawl on all 4's. Not even close to pulling himself up.

My DD just scoots around (she cant scoots forward, only backwards) She can pivot herself in a circle on her stomach and will get on all 4s and rock, but isnt doing any sort of forward movement

DS can pull up if I sit him next to something short and steady, but he doesn't initiate it. He still moves backward when he tries to crawl.

This exactly for my DD. She is 8 mos old today! Don't stress, crawling is sometimes a milestone that babies skip-alot just go straight to pulling up and walking.

She sounds just like my DD. Mine will be 8 months on the 31st and she doesn't crawl or stay on all fours. She stands well too if we put her up to a table but she doesn't pull herself up. I'm not really worried about it - she's learning at her own pace. Wink

dd is 8 mths and not crawling or pulling herself up. she is not even on all 4s yet. she just kind of pivots on her belly. She can stand when supported. you can tell she wants to move, but cant do it, her legs are always going. but she is talking so much! not too worried. but it is frustrating when you see younger babies doing all that stuff. but each baby goes at their own pace i guess
