#asktheexpert hello doctor my baby is 7 months plus but he doesn't move forward. but he rolls both directions is it normal?

A. Yes, it's normal for a 7-month-old baby to roll in both directions but not yet move forward. At this age, babies develop at different rates, and some may take a bit longer to crawl or move. Rolling is an important milestone and shows that your baby is developing strength and coordination. Most babies start crawling between 6 to 10 months, but some may skip crawling altogether and go straight to pulling up to stand or walking. Encourage your baby to explore by placing toys just out of reach to motivate movement. If you're concerned about your baby's mobility or development, it's always a good idea to consult your pediatrician for personalized guidance and reassurance.
