My son is almost 7 months old and still crawling incorrectly

I had to bribe my baby to crawl lol. 7 months is still a normal range not to crawl. My baby was fascinated with my phone but I’d never let her touch or look at it so one day I put it like a foot in front of her and she used all her baby strength to get there 😂. If they’re eating food you can put little baby snacks they like on a clean blanket and see if that will motivate them to crawl. Some babies just don’t care unless they have a reason 😅.

Perhaps he’s still figuring out how to do it… I try to do exercises with my baby as much as I can. When he’s laying on his back we do legs up and down. Opposite hand and leg up and down and make sure he grabs his foot, I roll him to the sides too, all of this very playful, sometimes I sing while we do the exercises or make funny faces/noises.

We also hold him in “crawling position” and when he’s doing by himself we pushed his feet forward. He’s not an expert but he’s getting the hang of it.

He’s still just figuring it out. That’s still a normal age to crawl. My oldest was standing up before he started crawling I really thought he was gonna skip crawling.

My first was SUCH a late crawler and didn't walk until almost 18 months lol I'm so not worried about my almost 7 month old not crawling. She's starting to push up on her arms then push onto her knees then fall and just roll where she wants to go. Don't stress. They'll get there💕

I’m a speech therapist but I work at a clinic with physical therapist who work with babies! It sounds like his arms are actually weaker which is why he’s not picking his head up when he’s pushing with his feet. This is normal to an extent but on way to help is by having him to tummy time across your legs with his arms down on the floor or mat. You could also put him on a pillow or rolled towel under his chest with his arms down to help him learn to push against the floor with his arms

Same

My son is 6 months, he only seats upright. No rolling yet. He hates tummy time!

Lol my son had this same technique for a couple weeks and now this week hes crawling for real!! Baby is learning! My son would get super frustrated too and cry but it was because he didnt understand how to lift his head and arms and legs all at the same time. I think your son will be crawling very soon! :)
