Did your 2nd baby walk sooner than your first?

Question

This is my second bubba. She’s 9 months now. She crawled at 8 months and started pulling up to stand a week later and now she’s very close to standing unaided. Everyone says she will be walking before she’s 1, however I remember them saying similar about my eldest as she was crawling and cruising at a similar age but she didn’t walk unaided until she was 1. 
Anyone with more than one tell me how it went down in their house please? 😊

Answer

Only ten days earlier. My first walked 10 days after his first birthday and my second walked on his first birthday. They both started crawling at 8 months. 
Thought my third would keep the streak but he didn't crawl until 11 months and isn't walking yet at 14 months.

Answer

My oldest took his first steps at 9 months old and was fully walking by 10 months. My second took his first steps around 10 months but wasn’t confidently or consistently walking until closer to 14 months old. My third didn’t take her first steps or start walking until she was 13 months old.

Answer

Yes. My first walked at 11m & my second at 8m lol now my third is 6m rn she’s starting to stand so I have a feeling she’ll be walking soon too 🥺

Answer

Nope my first walked at 1 year my 2nd was 18 months. My 2nd has a very expanded vocabulary (much more than 1st) they claim that is why she walked so much later. She was too busy talking....lol.

Answer

Im really praying my second walks later than my first. First had 0 interest in crawling and instead took her first steps at 6m1w old. It was so scary with lament floors having her walking and falling from walking that young. So far our second seems less physical tho, first was rolling both directions at a few hours old and never stopped, second couldn't roll from back to belly until a week old and he's just getting solid enough head control that I can hold him by his trunk in a sit without his head flopping

Answer

No, but my youngest learned to crawl - my oldest never did. And my youngest is way ahead in terms of words and speaking, his brother didn't start speaking before he was 2,5.

Answer

My first born started walking at 11 months and my second born started walking at 9 months.

Answer

I can’t give advice or anything. But I’m in the same situation with my 8 month old. He started crawling at 7 months and he’s been pulling himself up for 2 weeks now and even started walking along the couch. Time will tell 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

Yes. My first didn’t walk til 15 months- didn’t crawl. Walked against furniture instead. And my second was walking at 9.5 months 😒 crawling at 4.5 months. Was interesting

Answer

Oh wow thanks everyone such an interesting mix of answers. Guess we will have to wait and see 🥰
