Has anyone's baby just never crawled?

Dd is nearly 11 months and is far more interested on being walked around rather than learning to crawl. If you put her in the position she just lays there till she cries or rolls over. She doesn't commando crawl or bum shuffle either.

Will she just go straight to walking and never crawl?

My 2 never really crawled, and neither did I. We all walked very early - first cruising around the furniture then off.

DS only ever commando crawled and not much of that. He was cruising at 10 months and liked to be walked (i.e. with me holding his hands) but couldn't pull up for what felt like ages. It was very frustrating when he was 8-10months or so and wanted to be moving around but couldn't work out how to do it for himself so would grizzle at me to be moved around!

Luckily, he walked at 13 months and then was much happier, as was I!

Weirdly, he's now a very sporty and physically able 6 year old so his grozz motor skills did catch up eventually.
