Crawling Babies - Come in!

[sunnybeachesnwaves]

How does your baby crawl? Mine is a C ... and I thought it was odd. I guess its normal? But wanted to see how other babes crawled

[ns1]

DS is D and he can move quickly like that. I don't think he'll get to A before he walks. DD was C.

[yayglitter]

Lately, she's been crawling like B, but she crawls like A as well. IMost of the time when she crawls like B, she's trying to stand.

We were D for a couple weeks but now we're A

DS2 does everything except actually crawl....so I'd say D, E, and F. He scoots on his butt most of the time.

DS1 was my traditional crawler, A. And he crawled at his exact 8 month birthday. Today is DS2's 8 month birthday and he isn't even bothering.

[haykay13]

Combo of A & C, mostly A

[kc83]

DS does the E & F right now. He's working really hard on C. He just can't figure out the one leg and he gets very frustrated.

[typeset]

He does reciprocal crawling with a wide base of support and the occasional bunny hop on his knees.

Mines a D. I didn't realize that was considered crawling. I just thought she was scooting. She mostly only goes in circles though. So maybe it doesn't count yet.

[bliz1712]

It's mostly A, but she'll throw in B and C every once in awhile. She started as D.

[aimeefarrahfowler]

Almost always D. He tries A but D is just easier. He's really fast, too!

[lavendergiraffes]

Sometimes A and sometimes C but started at D

[kendy20]

Every once in a while she will bend her knee so I guess a little bit of C but primarily A. DH and I say she's like a ninja because she doesn't make a lot of noise when she crawls and she's across the room or in the kitchen in no time!

Same here. DS can only scoot in circles or backward. I hear though that if they can do this, actual crawling is not too far away.

[kittenzilla]

A, and he sounds like an elephant; I have no idea how he makes that much noise.

[BurritosAtEveryMeal]

DS is D, E, and F. I am glad he doesn't move too far yet. We haven't really had to baby proof but I anticipate gates and electrical plugs in the next few weeks. Oy! Time is flying!

[bluegenes420]

Definitely D. He is trying other ways of crawling but always ends up going back to D since it's quicker for him.

Haha mine too. I know where she is cause I hear her hands going, "slap, slap slap"

[scotty138]

DS is D. He uses one elbow and one hand. He has gotten really fast though!

[becole]

Where's the option for scooting backwards?

[et2014]

Mine is D and he is so fast like others have said. I thought he would transition and move up to A or B but nope, he's happy this way and he's fully sitting now from that crawling position.

[microworm]

He does A, D, E, and F. Mostly D for awhile there but just recently figured out A, which I think will be the dominant form from now on. Too cute!

[THD7580]

DS is all A. Started off as D

[mary97]

DD has no interest in crawling. She gets frustrated and then just rolls to where ever she wants to go. I think she's going to walk first because she just loves to be put in a standing position.

As much as I'm not ready for a mobile baby, little jealous yours are crawling/scooting.

This is us, with a little scooting thrown in for repositioning. But she's very mobile with the rolling.

[minae01]

We are at D (except he pushes himself forward with both hands at the same time - like a pushup and forward) and have been for about 6 weeks. I kept thinking he would modify it to a more traditional crawling position, but apparently he likes to work harder than necessary. I guess that's a good trait...

[jennyinheaven]

Combo of d and rolling to get where she wants to be

[mamagerman]

DD is a C but is working toward crawling like A.

[scout251]

Which one shows scooting around like an inch worm but only in the confines of her crib and otherwise whining & getting pissed when placed on the floor and not magically moving around? I don't see the option for that.

[helmink0804]

We're A and D. Started with D but went to A a month ago and does a combo.
