Baby is not crawling!

2019-04-01 19:47:47
Dear Sir, My 9.5 months old daughter ( born during 34 TH week) hasn't started crawling as yet. Whenever we try to make her lie down on her stomach , she starts crying badly. Please advise. Regards Rishika

Is she able to sit without support? Is she able to stand with support? Normally preterm babies achieve all the milestones by 2 years of age But if the baby is lacking behind you need to get her evaluated and proper growth assessment should be done

Don't worry. There is a wide time range for these milestones. As long as she is sitting on her own and doing other things babies her age do, you can wait
