My little bum shuffler 😂 cruises and pulls up everything!!! But absolutely no interest in standing alone. When I get her to try to walk holding my two hands shes fine. But when I try with one she just stands and sits down. I know she will do it in her own time, just wondering if anyone’s been or going through similar. Hard not to worry a little when all her other friends are walking around her…

My little boy is the same! He’s a bum shuffler and so quick 😂 he’s stands and cruises while holding on to things and walks holding my hands but not on his own. He’s getting more confidence everyday though, I think the shuffle is quicker than walking at the moment so he’s not rushing haha

Yep my bum shuffler is the same! She’s cruising loads now but can’t stand unaided, she just doesn’t have the balance. She walks really well holding both hands but if I go to one hand she gets scared and stands still xx

Have you tried getting her to hold something with the other hand? My girl isn’t walking independently just yet but has taken unaided steps and walks beside me holding one hand now. I find when her hands are occupied she’s more brave in the sense of trying unaided off her own back if that makes sense?
She is definitely very fast at shuffling😂 I’ll give that a try! This morning I got her to hold one finger on each hand and she took two steps then looked at me as if to say absolutely not and sat down🤦♀️ she’s always been a little later at doing physical things, she wouldn’t pull up until 14 months. Just feel like walking is so far off at the moment
