Attempting to crawl?

Question

My sweet baby girl is a little over 8 months old. She isn't a big fan of playing on her tummy. She will play for a few minutes then roll over onto back. She appears to be trying to get her legs underneath her. She also does planks and can lift all the way up on her arms. How soon did your little one start crawling after exhibiting these signs? Any advice on how to teach her? I am just really excited for her 😍

Answer

Basically put their legs in the crawl position to get them used to it. Then you can support their tummy up so they are in the crawl position. After that, if you sit behind them you can support the belly with one hand while you move their legs in a crawling motion with the other.
I think one of the best and easiest things through is to put a ton of toys just out of reach, maybe one foot in front of them. Let them fuss and struggle, maybe 5 minutes, and if they don’t make it over then do the above except and help them crawl to get them. 
Good luck!

Answer

Mine has started doing this too. I’m waiting for him to sit on his own still. He will be so much happier when he can play sitting up.

Answer

Highly recommend my strong little body on Instagram for how to get your little one ready for crawling or any movement. She is a paediatric physiotherapist. I bought her book and have found it so helpful.

Answer

Cute! My boy is doing the same. I would think within a week they will be crawling or some version of crawling.
