Baby is only belly crawling

Hi ladies, I’m feeling a bit concerned and could use some reassurance. My baby will be 10 months in a week, but she’s not quite crawling yet—just doing the belly crawl. We’ve tried lots of exercises to help her, but she gets frustrated quickly. She’ll stand when I help her up next to the sofa, but she hasn’t started pulling herself up on her own yet. She’s also almost able to sit up from lying down but hasn’t quite mastered it.

My eldest never "properly" crawled. Just commando crawled to get where he wanted to go. He's 3 now and runs and climbs and jumps with the best of them. Your baby might never properly crawl, but that's ok, some of them don't!

My LO is the exact same and will be 10 months next week x

My little one is exactly the same. I am not worried, every kid reaches milestones in their own time 💗 xx

My little one is nearly 10 months and army crawled for about 3 months before he just worked it out one day. It’ll happen soon I’m sure!

My boy is 10 months next week and he also just moves about like a slug 😂 or tries to crawl and ends up just rolling over! I’ve been slightly concerned but then I just remind myself of the many milestones I’ve been worried about before and he just did them one day in his own time, I’m sure it’ll be the same for this 😊
