I heard that if a baby doesn't crawl it
will affect their balance later on. Does
anyone know if it is true?
Thanks!

My son is 10 months and not crawling. He
drags himself to where he wants to go. He
loves to stand and has incredible balance.
He can also go from belly to sitting. He
pulls up on everything. I honestly think
he is going to skip crawling altogether.
How old is your baby?

Im not sure if it affects there balance or
not one of my little cousins didnt crawl
at all he just walked
and two other of my little cousins who are
brothers didnt crawl until they were old I
remember at one point they had to hire a
physical therapist because they didnt know
if he would ever be able to walk and now
both of them are fine.

on his stomach ...But when he trys to
crawl he gets angry at himself and crys so

My daughter is 6 1/2 months and she is
crawling and climbing on everything. She
started crawling when she was 5 months and
started rolling from her back to her
stomach when she was 3 months.

The less you pick them up,the more they
will crawl.My older sisters baby is held
all the time.He is 1 yr and 2 months old
and is starting to walk.My little sisters
baby is picked up way less and he started
walking when he was about 10 moths old.

I'm not saying it's true in all cases just
mine! : )
