Still a really clumsy walker?

At S3's 15m visit the pedi mentioned she was concerned enough about his physical coordination to want to refer me to EI, obviously I didn't have a problem with it.
He didn't sit unassisted until 9mo but he also crawled before he sat, as in he started crawling and 2 days later began sitting unassisted, so we just chalked it up to him being lazy. With crawling he would topple forward and bang his head off the ground. With walking its more obvious, he's been walking since right after his birthday (9/6) and while he doesn't crawl anymore he's not exactly an expert at walking (falls constantly). He always looks like he's just gotten in a really bad fight because of this, we also found out he's anemic which is making him easier to bruise.
I wasn't really concerned until she said something and just assumed he was a clumsy kid... I trip over my own self.

Re: Still a really clumsy walker?
I think the referral has a lot to do with the fact she knew how late he was to sit and the other general clumsy-ness. We also have an appt with an eye dr in Jan, DH has had 6 surgeries on both eyes, his original issues were double vision and she thinks its a possibility Simon might as well.

And FWIW, DD1 wasn't sitting on her own until 7-8 months, but was crawling long before.
