1 year old not walking nor crawling, only army crawling and feeling so stressed out about it

So my son was not even one yet and they told me that they would refer him to babies cant wait but if they say there is no need to worry then don’t worry and don’t feel bad bc my baby just turnt 1 she crawling but not walking so it could just be that your little one is not ready

Also talk to your pediatrician about babies cant wait they help your little meet their milestone my son is now 2 will be 3 on Sunday and he didn’t start walking till after 3 months of he turning 1 they do physical therapy occupational therapy and speech therapy if needed

You don’t need to wait for your pediatrician to start early intervention. You can do a self referral online or by phone and list the reason that baby isn’t crawling which is considered a delayed milestone after 12 months. It sounds much scarier then it is but there are state resources available to help. Two specialist therapists usually come to your home to do a free initial evaluation then if you need further services they explain how it’ll work.

9-18 months is when babies start walking. Which is a pretty big range. Every baby is an individual. You are still within normal! It should.

I believe army crawling is considered crawling. I second what someone said earlier about early intervention/physical therapy. When my son was ~4ish months, he didn't turn his head very much and 3 months of physical therapy worked wonders... I would have never thought of doing those specific exercises.

I get it people also like to brag about their kids and it makes you feel worse. If it makes you feel better I nannied a little girl who didn’t walk until about 14 months

Crawling isn’t considered a milestone because some babies do skip it but as far as walking I have 13 month old that’s not walking yet she crawls pulls to stand will walk while holding onto furniture but
Isn’t unassisted walking which is completely normal unless u feel something is wrong I would bring it up but army crawling is considered crawling I know alittle baby that’s 13 months he just scoots on his bottom no walking for him yet so yeah don’t stress every baby is different

Here's an pediatric OT, Emma Hubbard , that does great videos and explanations. She was my go-to resource for my first when we struggled with things.

I feel you my son isn’t walking yet nor crawling he goes on his knees and rock back and forth but that’s it he does the same as well he military crawls and doesn’t walk either I feel awful as well
