Babies typically start crawling between 6 and 10 months of age, although some may start as early as 4 months or as late as 12 months. Crawling is an important skill for babies to learn and is a big milestone in their development. Before they can crawl, babies have to develop skills like head and arm control, sitting up without support, and rolling over from front to back and back to front. Crawling on hands and knees typically happens between the ages of 7 and 10 months, although some babies will start crawling later and others won’t crawl on their hands and knees at all before they walk. Some babies may also start by crawling backward before moving forward. It is important to note that all babies grow and develop at their own pace, and there is no evidence to support that skipping milestones such as crawling leads to further developmental issues. If you have concerns about your babys development, its important to be in contact with your trusted healthcare providers.
