Hello,
My DS is almost 8 months and is not yet crawling. He has just learnt to sit up by himself but even then he still topples over after a while. If we put him on his hands and knees he has very good neck strength but just seems to push himself backwards. He can move quite far actually by going backwards! Is this normal? It seems a lot of babies crawl at much younger ages. The thing is, I don't think he is even really close to being able to crawl properly. I would say at least another 2 months.
Anyone else had a late crawler??
