Did anyone's baby not crawl at all?
Just wondering, as DS2 is nearly 9 months, hates going on his front and when he is, makes no real effort to get up onto his hands and knees, but he has very strong legs, so if you try to get him to sit down, his legs will be dead straight. Also, he is constantly trying to stand up and hold onto things. He doesn't pull himself up, but because he 'refuses' to sit down, he grabs onto something to ensure that he stays upright.
I'm not really worried as I have heard that some babies don't crawl. However, all the babies I have ever known have.
Should I be encouraging him to crawl or even stand up?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
