A. Most babies start to crawl between 6 and 12 months. But there is a wide range of what's “normal” when it comes to reaching developmental milestones—just because your daughter hasn't crawled by 8 months doesn't mean that there is something wrong with her.At times, at 6 months, a baby may actually pull himself up and then crawl or avoid crawling between the ages of 9 and 12 months. A good thumb-rule is to wait and assess your baby's progress for two to three months beyond the milestones before you start panicking.Motor skill developmental delays may be related to problems with gross motor skills, such as crawling or walking, or fine motor skills, such as using fingers to grasp a spoon. Possible causes of motor skill delays. Children who are born prematurely may not develop muscles at the same rate as other children.

A. Hello mom
Every baby development cycle is different. Some babies Cross milestones early and some takes time so you don’t have to worry about it at all. If your baby is active and taking proper meals on time then every thing is fine and nothing to worry about. Some babies directly start walking they don’t care also don’t worry
