YOUR BABY IS ON THE MOVE!

Your baby may begin to crawl between six and nine months of age. However, if she does not start crawling, don't worry; she may have found another way of getting around, or may skip this stage entirely and just start walking. Many babies develop their own unique methods of movement. However, if you are concerned that she's not developing normally, have her pediatrician do an evaluation. To help your baby develop locomotion skills, place a toy just out of reach and let her try to get it. She may become frustrated when she can't quite reach it, but let her keep trying and figure it out for herself. This will help her development and self confidence.
