DS1: standing up at coffee table and cruising round it, 12 mths, walking by 13.
DD and DS2: standing at 9 months, cruising almost immediately, walking at 10mths - they were both built like sturdy rugby players!

why are you interested?

BeaMinor · 30/03/2012 22:18

DD was 8 months pulling up, 8.5 months cruising, 9.5 months 1st steps then 13 months walking (lazy so and so!)

DS was 8 months pulling up, 8.5 months cruising, 11 months first steps, 13 months walking.

Have to say I'm pretty sure DS could walk before 13 months but would only do it donkey-following-carrot-on-stick-style as he was too lazy to do it otherwise! :)

DS: 7mo, 9m, 10m
DD1: 9m, 10m, 10m
DD2: 8m, 9m, 10m
DD3: 9m, 10m, 12m

dd pulling up 5m, cruising 7m I was panicking thinking she was going be walking by 9m but she didn't start walking until 10m (and then only with a hand in yours) 11m 364days she walked by herself with no one holding on. She never fell over, never had bumps or bruises from falling... I think she may actually be an alien.

Letchladeee · 30/03/2012 22:33

DD1 Pulling up at 8 months, cruising and using a toddle truck at 9 months, but she was a super speedy crawler and didn't actually walk until 13 months.

DD2 (can't really remember Blush) I think it was pulling up at about 7 months, cruising at 8 1/2 months and walking at 11 months.

DD2 beat DD1 to all the physical milestones by about 2 weeks every time. DD1 though was much better at talking.

QED · 30/03/2012 22:38

DS - pulling up between 8 and 9 months, cruising at 9 months, walked at 15 months (was a v speedy crawler)

DD - can't actually remember her cruising really Blush. Didn't move at all until 10.5 months. She walked at 15 months as well though (she is NSC obviously)

tara0202 · 30/03/2012 22:39

My dd pulled herself up, cruised and walked all within the space of 2 weeks when she was 16.5 months old. This was one week before the hospital appt we had having been referred due to her not pulling up or weight bearing!

Hulababy · 30/03/2012 22:41

Dd was cruising using hands or furniture at 5 months, crawled at 8 months then walked at 10 months.

NimpyWindowmash · 30/03/2012 22:44

I think this just shows they are all so different. DD is 14mo, not walking yet. Pulling up 12mo, cruising 13mo but she is a super fast crawler.

My DD is 13 months and not crawling, pulling up, or weight bearing. Tbh my other 2 were lazy late walkers but she takes the biscuit. Has been seen by gp who is not concerned ...still I worry a bit

BlackOutTheSun · 30/03/2012 23:06

dd - 7m, 8m, 10m

DontCallMeBaby · 30/03/2012 23:22

strawberry DD was doing none of those things at 13mo - pulled up for the first time at 14mo (having been spaghetti-legs non-weight-bearing baby before), crawled a week later. Just before we went on a holiday that had been organised for ages, during which I'd assumed we would have an active toddler but resigned myself (happily in some ways) to having an immobile baby after all ...

hazeyjane · 31/03/2012 06:42

dd1 - 12 months, 14 months, 16 months

dd2 - bum shuffled then walked at 21 months, pulled up after this

ds - started cruising 19 months, still cruising at 21 months never pulled up (he is developmentally delayed and has low muscle tone)

LeMousquetaireAnonyme · 31/03/2012 06:49

DD1 8, 8, 11
DD2 6, 7, 9 months

SaraBellumHertz · 31/03/2012 09:34

Dc1 all three at 9mths

Dc2 pulling up 10mths, cruising 11 mths walked on first birthday

Dc4 pulling up 6 mths, cruising 8 mths, walked week after first birthday.

gallicgirl · 31/03/2012 19:36

mmm not sure, think she was pulling up around 8m then crawling shortly afterwards. I actually thought for a short while that she wasn't going to crawl and would go straight to walking. However, she is now crawling enthusiastically and cruising confidently with little sign of walking (at 14 months)

MagsAloof · 31/03/2012 19:40

DC1 - pulling up at 6 mths, cruising at 8 mths, walked at 10 mths

DC2 - pulling up at 10 mths, cruising at 14 mths, walked at 18 mths

ProlificYoungGentlemenBreeder · 31/03/2012 19:45

Ds1 9m-9 1/2m 10m

Ds2- 8m- pretty much immediately, I think he'll be walking 9-1/2 months. Determined little monkey!

golemmings · 31/03/2012 19:54

Dd crawled at 7mo, cruised at 8mo and therfore didn't feel the need to walk until 16mo.

Hoping DS stays put a bit longer. He's nearly 6mo but can almost sit which dd didn't until after she could crawl

DharmaBumpkin · 31/03/2012 21:56

DD walking at 10 months, didn't crawl, pull up or cruise (or roll over!) until she had physio around 15 months...

So if she fell over, she couldn't move until she was set on her feet again... Oh the frustrated temper tantrums!
