Evening all :thumbup:

Just wandered if anyone elses child is a late crawler? Megan is 11 months old and has never even attempted to move!! She has never rolled and doesnt even pull up on her knees to crawl, she doesnt cruise or pull herself up either??

Any advice anyone?? Xx
 
Mine just did for the first time yesterday, right before 10 months. Maybe she's just lazy, hehe? Some babies go straight from sitting to running, she's probably one of those. Crawling is not considered a milestone and not essential!
 
ahhhhh Sam wants to know if Megan will marry him - he too thinks all this moving about malarky is very much over-rated and thinks they will be a perfect match!!!

Sam commando crawled about three paces at 13 months and does this about ohhh twice a day.

He lays in preference to sitting and instead of moving to things he drags them to him - either that or waits for his brother to bring them over lol

I had him checked checked and checked again as he is soooooo different to Fynn but the official diagnosis is 'lacks motivation' lol

I am trying to enjoy the pros of this but it is stressful - you know where I am if you want an ear xx
 
Thanks so much Vicky :) I have just had her checked today AGAIN and the health visitor said she might just be a lazy baby!! She will sit down all day and even if i dont give her any toys to play with to encourage her to move she just starts playing with her feet, or a bit of fluff, or a crumb on the floor!!

She just looks like she just doesnt want too, its stressing me so much though, especially as all her baby friends are moving around!!

Even at nursery they said she will quite happily sit and play but the minute they try to encourage her to crawl she screams the place down!!

Oh i just asked Megan if she would like to marry sam and she clapped her hands and waved so i think thats a yes!! Yaaaay one less thing to worry about lol!!!!

Xx
 
Moo is one on Friday and crawled for the first time last Saturday, wS starting to think she never would lol. Was new to me as my son walked just before nine months. Think my lo is just a lazy little lady xx
 
ooooh your LO sounds exactly like mine. hed never rolled or attempted any sort of movement at all at 11 months lol. but a few days before his 1st birthday i put my cd player on and he just got on all fours crawled up to it and turned it off haha. hes a yr and a week old now and he doesnt crawl very often just when he can be bothered. think hes just lazy lol x
 
awww bless her - yep sounds like Sam - I just try and enjoy what he can do not what he cant. He is fabulous with books and turns pages and really looks like he is reading and apparently ahead in terms of how he interacts with people and his speech too. xxx
 
Even though Brian was very early with most of his other things he still doesnt crawl at nearly 13 months.
He started to army crawl at 10.5 months and as far as hes concerned thats fine for now but boy can he drag himself around at the speed of light :)
Hes only just in the last few days been trying to get up on his knees but doesnt attempt to move from there he just nose dives after a few seconds, he is trying to pull himself up on the sette but only when theres somthing he realy wants and again thats only been the last few days.
I dont think he is going to bother with proper crawling.
Both me and his father never crawled either, we just went from sitting around to getting up and walking, me at 8/9 months and his father on his first birthday.
 
My daughter who is 7 did not crawl until 3 days after her first birthday.

She never rolled, started sitting up unaided at 9 months and walked at 17 months. She was behind most other babies with that sort of development.

So frustrating thou, as everyone else who had babies, some younger than yours who do everything before you LO does it.

I think Harrison is gonna be the same, but I know he will do it in his own time.
 
My LO army crawled from wround 9 months and now at 10 months has JUST THIS WEEK crawled proprly
 
Sophie is 9 months and doesn't crawl. She only started rolling over last month.
