Crawling vs cruising

shae

Hey guys! My little one is 8 months and is pulling up and has started I guess cruising she holds onto her toy box and shuffled along it and then grabs on to the table. But she doesn’t crawl. She’s been sitting since 5 months, rolls a lot and gets onto all fours but hasn’t crawled. Usually when she tries she face plants. I know all babies are different but is this normal? She constantly wants to stand everywhere. Anyone else have a similar kiddo? Should I maybe try to discourage the standing and let her figure out the crawling thing first?

Don’t worry we weren’t driving I brought her to the car to breastfeed but little miss had other ideas. 🤦‍♀️
