10 mo not pulling up - really worried

My 10 mo dd was born with clicky hips or CDH. She wore a pavlik harness until she was 15 weeks old, and her hips were fine when it came off. We were advised that as the walking spectrum is so wide, we would never know whether it would slow her development down or not.

I am probably worrying for no reason other than I am paranoid because of her hips. She is crawling normally, pulls up to her knees, and is putting one foot (not always the same one)on the floor but just not pulling up.

Should I be freaking out?

Hiya

My dd is 11 months next week and is not pulling up (or even attempting to). She's not crawling properly either (sort of commando style) or pulling up to her knees. Don't think there's anything to worry about (and she doesn't have any physical problems - she's just a bit lazy )

Hi Tilly

Didn't want to ask on our thread as they all shout at me for being neurotic

They'll find you though Jen

You're a mum - its in the job description to be neurotic

My DD is only just crawling normally now at 17 mos, and pulling up to her knees and to stand, please don't worry yet!

I'm sure she is fine, my DD was born with no hip problems and didn't pull herself up to stand until about 13 months and didn't start walking unaided til about 17 months.

Thanks ever so much. That's the only drawback I find with mumsnet, everyone comparing. Although the benefits generally to my sanity outweigh that!

dd has no pyhsical problems, but didn't pull up until about 16 or 17 months.
She runs around with no problems at all now (2.1)

Don't worry and don't compare!!

DD never crawled, walked at 11mths but couldn't pull herself up til she was well over 18mths

DS 12mths bum shuffles, doesn't crawl, cruises but can't pull himself up either (probably too heavy )

No, it's normal. My dd did not pull up to standing - walked at 14 months but didn't do anything before that. Didn't crawl either. She sounds like she's doing all the right things otherwise.

Honestly, I think it sounds fine (I was wondering whether to panic too at 10 months when she still wasn't moving AT ALL....)
