Helping baby crawl?

My LO is nearly 8 months and has been getting up on his hands and knees and rocking back and forth for a few weeks now but can't seem to figure out how to actually move if that makes sense? He moves his feet forward, but can't seem to work out that he can move his arms too.

Is there anything I can/should do to help him? Or just leave him to it?

I'm not worried about his development and I'm not trying to rush him, just wondering if I should be doing something to help him learn?

He'll figure it out soon enough. You could always try leaving toys he likes slightly in front of him. Sounds a bit cruel but it usually gives them a bit of a push to get moving.
