9 month not crawling: motor functions damaged? Posted: 12-07-06 13:02pm
My 9 month old daughter isnt crawling at
all, isnt walking, wont pull herself up on
anything, and every time i put her on her
tummy she rolls right over to her back and
than cant move. She still is completly
immobile. Should I be concerned?? She
isnt overweight, she weighs 21 lbs, and
she is 26 inches, all the other children
her age are about walking, and she cant
even scoot.
Most babies start to walk at the age of 12
months. At 9-10 months, your baby should
manage to stand on his feet. But every
baby’s development is individual and
there are always variations in
development. Nonetheless, it will help to
bring your daughter to a pediatrician to
test his motor functions.
