Crawling

My baby is about to be 9 months and he is still just dragging himself across the floor instead of crawling on his knees. I’ve been trying to help him be on his knees more but he still won’t use them to crawl. He’s seems more keen to learn how to stand😂 Anyone else going through this?

Same for my baby! He’ll be 9 months tomorrow

Mine started dragging at 5 months, it then went to an army crawl, then some high speed commando crawl where he could cross the room in seconds. it took him 3 months to full hands and knees crawl.

I think it’s normal, they all find different ways to get there but will eventually get there in the end. Or just be a shuffler and then just start walking at a later date. My 9 month old shuffles his knees together at the same time to try and crawl. Quite cute watching them trying to figure it out x

My baby was a "floor swimmer" for 3 months! He just got it one day though and now crawls properly, give them time and they will get there ❤️

Very similar with us, she has been army crawling for three months and all of a sudden she has started properly crawling

Yep 9 months in 2 days and just does the army crawling ...whenever I try to put him on the floor he'd rather try and walk than go on his belly or sit down 🙈

My baby is 9 months and not crawling or dragging himself. He gets on his knee but doesn’t move juet goes onto tummy and stays there x

My son turned 9 months on the 8th of Feb, he has crawled since 8 months old BUT he did this a lot at first, he was actually ‘army crawling’ from 6 months and it took him 2 months to crack the crawling ‘properly’, your little one may skip crawling and go straight to standing x

My oldest boy used to bum shuffle along the floor didn't walk until 2/3 years old. He was just lazy.

Okay it’s actually a relief to know I’m not the only one 😂
