My 14 month old boy (Zak) is a bum-shuffler (since about 10 months). He doesn't cruise but does (unsucessfully) try to pull himself up (but in a sort of yoga position!). I know rationally that I shouldn't worry but all the other babies in my NCT group are now walking and I feel a bit sad for my boy - he just can't do the same actitives as the other babies. Does anyone have experience/advice on bum-shufflers i.e. what age do they normally walk (I know it's later), is there anything I can do to help?, when should I start worrying? etc. Thanks Jus. PS It's my first time on mumsnet - apologies if I haven't followed 'netiquette'!
