Crawling

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months

DS is not crawling. Like I thought, his pediatrician said it was no longer a true milestone, since a lot of babies never crawl, and they end up just pulling themselves up and walking earlier. DS prefers to roll to everything, since it's faster.

Anyone have a non-crawler?

    Whether it is or isn't a milestone, I'm pretty sure places that list it as a milestone list it as a 9m milestone. Your LO is only 6m. Usually they are just learning to sit unassisted at that age.

     Also, don't be rushing the mobility thing

    • Have a 7mth old baby boy who does not crawl or show any interest when I try to put him into the position. He usually sits and trys to use his hands to scoot forward which he is getting better at.

    According to my MIL, my husband was walking at 6 months...she's out of her mind.  Anyways, just brush it off the best you can and know that 6 months is early for true crawling, and all babies will get going at their own pace.
