Ds was just before he was 6mths when he crawled but he was early at a lot of physical things but slow on the talking.

Ds has just started this week, commando style on knees then drops to commando again but is moving across the room quite quickly now, TOO QUICKLY!!

He is 9 1/2 months.

DS1 started commando crawling at 9 months (I think?) and proper crawling maybe at 10 months.

DS2 has just now started proper crawling (no commando) at 9.5 months, but is already going up stairs, trying to cruise, etc. Someone said he'd be walking in a couple of months! I do not want that.

Comando crawling is when they move there arms like crawling but there bum and legs just get dragged behin them, like army men crawl under the cargo nets

10 months-ish. Can't remember... No later though.

15mo now and not walking yet - is an amazing crawler/climber though. Think he would walk, but he's scared we'll make him walk on grass He's still scared of it!

6 months commando style, 8 months on hands and knees. Within 3 days he crawled properly, sat up unaided and pulled himself up to standing. It was a very eventful time.
