My boy is 10m next week and not crawling either! They all do things at their own pace it’s no reflection on you! Some people have two kids and the first crawled at 7m and the other not til 11 or something and they’ve parented them the same! It’s up to the babies unfortunately!

My boy is 10 month on the 17th and still not crawling He's also not saying mama dada baba etc It'll happen xx

All babies develop at their own pace, try not to compare to others, mine is crawling but won’t clap at all, which normally comes before crawling i think🤣 baby will crawl when they’re ready, and then you’ll spend all your time moving things out of their reach and chasing them🤣 x

Some babies never crawl and thats okay❤️

I understand you’re worried, but try not to let it consume you. Babies develop at their own pace, and some skip crawling altogether. It doesn’t mean there’s a problem. Comparing your child to others or to milestones you think they 'should' be hitting can really take a toll, especially as they grow. I know this because my dad did this a lot with me when I was young, constantly comparing me to other kids and making me feel like I wasn’t enough. It left a mark, and honestly, it got in the way of enjoying the things I was doing well. Constantly feeling like your child isn’t keeping up can end up being harder on them and on you than you realise. Your baby is unique, and they’ll reach milestones in their own time. Try to celebrate what they are doing rather than worrying about what they’re not. I'm sure you’re doing a great job, and your baby is lucky to have you care so much.

I totally get this lovely, but as everyone said above, babies go at their own pace.. you’ll never rush them😂I’m sure you’re a fab mum x

Mines not crawling either and I’m not worried, I’m hoping he doesn’t start till at least after Christmas 😂

@Shalise once he’s off its go go go honestly so hopefully you can relax a bit during christmas🤣🤣 Its not long after crawling they start pulling up and its hard work!

My 10 month old isn't crawling either🙈 I'm not sure she ever will, she loves being on her feet, she's also not pulling herself up by herself either, celebrate everything they are doing😊

Mine is 10.5 months and zero signs of wanting to crawl.

My little boy is 10 months old and he literally started to crawl a few weeks ago and I was worried but the health visitor said they all do it at different times ! He’s only got one tooth and that came through at 9 months old! And he’s only just started saying dada baba the last week x

not all babies crawl , maybe yours will stand up and will start walking next month its ok you should only get worried if 1.5 years would only sit .. and then they would give exercises..

My first never crawled… never even worried about it… I knew she wouldn’t and I don’t think my boy will crawl either he show signs of trying but likes to be on his feet… please don’t let this worry they will get there when they’re ready x
