My baby has just turned 6 months and we're trying to get him to sit up and crawl. Just wondering what age your babies didGrin

DD was very nosey. As soon as she could sit up and see around she was done 😅 she did a weird shuffle around with one arm on the floor like a monkey most of the time as opposed to crawling too.

AliceW89 · 27/01/2022 21:31

Sitting - 6ish months
Walked at 15 months
Never crawled. 6-15 months was quite painful 😬

My DD never crawled at all she'd shuffle on her bum.

Sitting independently at 4.5 months, crawling at 7 months, walking at 10 months. Very much behind the average curve for conversation though, I think they all just do things when they fancy!!

Notdoingthis · 27/01/2022 21:49

All 3 sat at 5 months.
My firstborn boy crawled at 6 months.
The two girls crawled at 7 months.
They walked at 12.5, 11 and 12 months.
All very strong and inquisitive babies.

3 dc, crawled at 6, 7 and 9 months
Sat up late all of them, around 8 months I think

Mine has been a bit behind with physical milestones. I wonder if it’s because he’s big.

He still can’t sit properly at 7 months but is getting better at it.

None of mine could sit well at 7 months except one who was a w sitter. They were all petite. They've grown up to be fine!
CrimbleCrumble1 · 28/01/2022 13:07

My three all crawled at 7 months then sat up the week later and pulled themselves up very shortly after that. I missed out on having them sitting up and not moving about.

BertieBotts · 28/01/2022 13:25

6 months! That's very little.

DS1 crawled 8 months sat 9 months
DS2 sat 6 months, crawled 8.5 months
DS3 5.5mo doing neither, although can roll repeatedly to get where he wants to be :o

They could all sit with support from about 4-5 months.

BertieBotts · 28/01/2022 13:27

Not sitting at 7 months isn't behind, don't worry.

bobsholi · 28/01/2022 13:28

DS1-sitting 4 months, crawling 11 months.
DS2-sitting 9 weeks! Crawling 8 months
DD-sitting 4 months, crawling 4 months

All quite different but now they're all big no one would ever know when they met these milestones.

Sleepybear12 · 28/01/2022 13:47

My dd did it backwards and crawled at 4-5 months, was sitting confidently at 6 months.

StruggleStreet · 28/01/2022 14:16

Just had to go back and look at photos to remind myself. DD was:
Sitting at 5 months
Crawling at 8 months
Walking at 11 months

betwixtlives · 28/01/2022 14:23

Mine never crawled! Went straight to walking at around 11 months I think

Juanbablo · 28/01/2022 20:31

All 3 sat up between 5 and 6 months. Ds1 crawled at 10 months, dd at 8 months and ds2 at 7 months.

gogohm · 28/01/2022 20:34

Dd1 Sitting 7 months, crawling 8 months, running 10 months. Dd2 sitting 6 months, crawling 6.5 months, running as fast as her older sister 9 months (aka nightmare!)

Caspianberg · 28/01/2022 20:40

Early. Was sitting up and climbing out of pram carrycot by 4.5months.
Was walking just before 9 months.

What. A. Pain!

Just10moreminutesplease · 28/01/2022 20:45

Sitting-5 months
Commando crawling-9 months
Crawling-10 months

If baby groups are anything to go by there is a huge range for these milestones Smile.

Chanel05 · 28/01/2022 20:46

Sat up (without tipping) at 6 months.

Crawled at exactly 7 months
