Do babies need kneepads to crawl?

Amylee

This is dumb I know.

My 9.5 month old just started to crawl on her hands and knees. She’s been army crawling for a month now. When I sent a video of her army crawling to my MIL said that she needed kneepads. I thought she was joking so I didn’t think anything of it. Then a couple of weeks later my husband came home from visiting her with a pack of baby kneepads. Over Christmas every time she saw her crawling around she made a comment why she wasn’t wearing the knee pads.

This week she started crawling on all fours and when I sent the video to her, the first thing she said was “where’s the knee pads?!”. And when I posted the video of Facebook, my MIL’s sister and nieces commented saying she needs kneepads.

Thoughts? I’m tired of everyone commenting about it. I really don’t think they are necessary but maybe I’m wrong.
