Hi There
It is hard not to worry esp if the nurse told you to get it checked out.
My DS1 didnt crawl til 13 months... i knew he would be late bc both my DH and I were but i still did worry. My MACH nurse hadnt told me to see anyone, but I was thinking of going to a physio in case. He did it in his own time. I dont think 12 months is really an age to worry too much - esp if she is sitting, rolling etc and meeting other milestones... plenty of kids dont crawl til way after that... i think the issue with crawling and walking is that they are the milestons ppl focus on bc they can see. is she happy? does she clap? babble? etc etc. i am sure she is developing in lotsof other ways.
That said, it cant hurt to hace her checked out for your peace of m,ind - if there is sonmething they can do to help her, better to start earlier than later (and you will now worry eiother way bc a seed has been sewn in your mind).
Bets of luck to you!
then you seriously have nothing at all to worry about honey...
its genetics!
and averages are just averages - she seems to be just focusing on other areas of development!
Hi...just wanted to throw up another scenario - my son never crawled....just skipped it altogether and went straight to walking....he commando crawled then was off and walking. He didn't crawl properly until he was 18mths and had been walking for 6 months!
