My 9mo daughter was the babbling queen a couple of weeks ago - all day long baba gaga dada aga etc etc she wasn’t crawling at that point, one week ago she has started crawling and she as gone from a tentative crawl to all over the place into everything and climbing within days.
Except now she’s not really babbling? A few sounds here and there and but nowhere near as much as she was.
Not quite sure why?

I think it's just when they are learning and mastering one skill other skills tend to go on the back burner for a bit. So once she has mastered crawling the babbling will come back.

They tend to focus on one skill at a time. Mastering the crawling and getting into everything is her priority for now.
