1 year old not crawling or walking.Normal?

Question

My baby girl just turned 1 today and still does not crawl, scoot, pull up or walk. She sees her pediatrician next week. Is this normal tho? Should I be worried?

Answer

Some kids skip walking entirely. But it is definitely something you should bring up to the pediatrician. 
Kids do learn at their own pace, though. I have 3 kids and worked with them all the same on those things. My 4 and 2 y/os both crawled at 8 months and pulled up at 9 months. Neither scooted before they crawled. 
And despite working with them the same, my 1 y/o son didn't crawl until he was 11 months old. He isn't walking yet. And he wasn't pulling himself up at his 1 year appointment, which they were a bit concerned about, but didn't think it was necessary for him to be in therapy yet. But I shit you not, that little booger started pulling up the next day after his doctor's appointment where I told them he wasn't pulling up yet.

Answer

To me that Indicates she’s a little behind. Not the walking, but scooting or pulling up. 
I would ask your pedi for a referral to early intervention

Answer

It is on the later end of things to be not trying to move in some way. Do they stand? Sit on their own? Roll?

Answer

They typically want to see kids pulling up by 12 months or other signs of wanting to move about their environment. The average age for walking is 15 months. She just may need a little extra help from physical therapy, and that’s okay.

Answer

It’s very normal not to be walking at 12 months and some kids do seem to skip the crawling stage. I’d talk about it with your paediatrician.

Answer

My first started crawling at 7 months and walked at 11 months. my 2nd is 6 months showing signs of wanting to crawl. I've seen kids start walking around 1 though. I would bring it up to pediatrician just to make sure since she's not scooting or pulling up either.

Answer

My daughter is 9 months and just starting pulling herself up onto things. If your pediatrician isn’t worried I wouldn’t be but she seems a bit behind
