Baby can stand but can’t crawl?

Question

My baby has been standing since last month and started to be able to stand independently from sitting down position but there is still no progress on the crawling department.. should i be worried? Should i focus more on the walking now that she is standing or divide the time with tummy time?

Answer

No need to worry, lots of babies skip crawling completely.

Answer

Crawling is not a milestone. It’s totally fine if baby doesn’t crawl

Answer

My baby doesn’t stand. She scoots across the floor on her bottom. She also has been standing with support since 5 months and the last month independently and recently has taken a few steps by herself. Our pediatrician said crawling on all fours is a milestone. She said not all babies do it. Some scoot on their bellies, on their bottoms, or army crawl. She it really is t that important. Shout of her 4 boys 2 of them walked before crawling and one of the didn’t “crawl” at all. All four of the. Are them are great.

Answer

Since it’s still early, I personally would try to encourage crawling as much as possible! Here’s an article I’ve read: https://ilslearningcorner.com/why-babies-should-never-skip-the-crawling-phase/

Answer

Totally normal, my baby is the same, she has no interest in trying to crawl, but she's desperate to stand and walk
