My 8month old isn't crawling yet should I be worried & she also has no teeth at all ? She's very weak in her legs but wsnts to stand up all the time so have to keep standing her up and holding her ect, I don't know if its relevant or not but she had servere reflux so wouldn't be put down much for tummy time for the first 4-5 months of her life she was also born 4 weeks early every other baby we meet at soft play seems to have been crawling from 5-6 months and already pulling themselves up !

What goodbeans said! Enjoy it while you can. My DD didn't crawl til around 9.5 months. She was also late with her teeth, she only has 2 at 1 year old. I'm not worried though and I don't think you need to be.

DH was definitely more keen on getting DD moving than I was. House is now full of huge playpen and stairgates so we can cook and clean without small person getting involved. He used to put stuff just out of her reach, I'd just give her anything.

That said I was keen to get her self feeding with a spoon. She's very determined and independent with feeding - the floor. Oh well at least the dog is happy, albeit fatter than he used to be!
